Apart from pocket aces, what's a hand you always enjoy seeing?"

Face

[Ashiotia]

King queen suited is my jam because it flops so many combo draws that you can semi bluff with real equity. Just dont fall in love when you hit top pair and face heavy action on wet boards.

Suited aces are fun, but I'm all about jack-ten suited — hits so many straight and flush combos it just feels crafty preflop.

Yes, that good

King queen suited just hits different when you're on the button and the flop brings a jack ten, giving you the open ender plus the royal draw. I swear that hannd prints money in PLO too when you've got the redraw to the nut flush.

King ten suited in the cutoff is my guilty pleasure, the blockers actually help a lot when you semibluff broadway boards and it holds up surpisingly often against weaker Ax calls.

haha I ride hard with ace king suited honestly, the way the table tightens up when you trhee bet it is chef's kiss. had a run last week where it hit a nut flush on the river three times out of like five showdowns which is stupid lucky but now I'm hooked

[vaelioys1]

Pocket sixes hit me with a full house on the flop once and I have chased that high every hand since.

That’s one of those spots where you’re rooting for almost every turn card.

I actually enjoy suited connectors like eight seven of hearts, it just opens up so many fun ways to build a hand and keeps the flop exciting even when you miss.

That good

Won my first tournament with kign ten suited so I smile every time.

[kovaixarium]

I floped quads with pocket threes once, now I always grin.

[Thoxumique]

I actually dodge ace king suited most of the time because it just bruns a hole in my stack when it misses and I cant let go of it. Give me pocket eights any day instead.

[RadanSniper]

I'll take pocket fives over queen ten offsuit any day because playing suited connectors that low just puts you in weird spots postflop, whereas hitting a set or a sneaky straight with fives actually pays off huge.
