46o. It's my number 2 leak. Number one is Texas Hold'em.

Pocket nines. I love that hand because it's so easy to play against the right opponents.

You think that hand is easy to play? I think medium pairs are the hardest holdem hands to play.

I'm not sure what is worse: an unknown leak in your game or an intentional one!

The hand I hate the most is jacks. Hard to fold to one overcard against an aggressive opponent but not enough to really like it.

I like 9s because most of the time I muck it if I don't have a set or overpair to the board. If I face a lot of heat without a set I just toss it.

I have more problems with jacks than any other hand. Hate it. The biggest problem is it is so hard for me to fold jacks preflop whereas 9s are easy to muck.

AA, duh?

Let's not get all superstitious now. Isn't that what this site is all about, getting rid of these kind of notions, like lucky hands, that lucky seat, my lucky dealer, etc.

For me it's AJo from MP after one limper.

I like 32o, because it feels great to say "I've got threes up."

If you payed attention....tsk tsk.

I said a hand you play when you shouldn't. I defy you to tell me when you shouldn't play AA.

ALl the experts suggest occasionally playing something that may not be normally correct to keep observant opponents from stealing when rags flop. I just wondered who played what.

How'd you make out last night?
