Default What hand gets you in the most trouble?

For me, its the old big slick. It seems like whenever I get it an ACE or a KING won't flop. Then if I do a continuation bet I get raised.

You're obviously not doing high-card/low-card calculations on previous flops and applying these when you have big slick.

My problem hand is 47s. The problem is I CANT STOP WINNING BIG POTS WITH IT BABY

47s is definitely a hand you have to take to the river. Uusually i'll flop a 4 with it, and if i do another one will come on the river. So i always play 47s to the end because i know i'll finish with trips and take down a nice juicy pot.

i've started playing 47s since my birthday is July 4th
and it adds some variation to my game.

i've actually hit some miraculous flops with it
and won a few good pots

Sometimes you may be getting raised because they are putting you on AK. Meaning, sometimes you are being raised by a lesser hand.

I'm right handed, so I'd have to say, my right hand.

Sometimes I wish the little cop in my head were louder. "Sir! Take your hand OFF the chips! Now move slowly away from the table!"
