There is 2 -- 2 of spades and 2 --- 3 of spades? Rigged deck? Or am I seeing it wrong? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I play all of these hand and then some, except A33x. Limp with favorable conditions.

AAxx is a freaking monster, despite what the haters say. Raise it up.

All the hands you listed are decent.
The other day I held AAA2 and just about punched a hole in my monitor (took all my will power not to punch it) when another player held A2 and I was quartered at show down.
What are the freakin odds another player is holding the lone Ace + a 2???

I play all of them 90-100% of the time except ...

7)A/A/X/X Rainbow

This hand relies entirley on the other 2. (XX) If the XX is something like 69, its auto-muck. Im calling AAXX probobly around 55% of the time.

They're not annoying hands.

I'd love to see em all, except A-A-x-x rainbow ain't that great if there's action in the pot before me. If half the table folds to me, I'll raise and maybe I just get the blinds and 1 other to play with me.

Annoying to me is whenI'm in the Big Blind, the table folds to the cutoff, he raises, and I have, say, 3-4-K-6 and out of position. Sure, they say any hand isn't that much of a disadvantage to any other hand IF PLAYED TO SHOWDOWN. But there's not that many flops I'll really feel like playing onless the board comes A-2-x or K-K-6. I really don't feel comfortable playing the blinds when faced with possible steal raises. Time to quit the table if it happens too much.
