Thought it might be intertesting if we posted the hands that we know we overplay, but don't care anyway...

Hands I play in positions where I "KNOW" I shouldn't ( and I have no intention of stopping - lol).

K-10s (especially clubs - they look so powerful lol)
A-9s and A-8s (these are not weak , they are medium -lol)
10-8s (on the button and SB)
Gone golfing ..see ya in the Fall of 2006
PS. What did the snail on the turtle's back say?
Wheeeeeeeee........

Will limp it UTG in most games worth playing. Sometimes raise UTG just because I can.

It's a pretty playable hand, partiularly in a loose game.

Used to play it a lot and lost money with it. Now I'm a little more careful. T9s and JTs are such better hands...

T8s easy call from SB; takes a good 4 people in the pot for me to play.

Unless I'm at Pacific...then i play it UTG....

i can't seem to kick the QJo habit. i look at the crap the fish keep showing down and i think, there can't possibly be an AQ/KQ/QQ out there. as if their looseness had anything to do with the laws of probability. then i flop a Q and fuck myself into oblivion. you would think i'd learn after the 100th time but no.

it's weird because i don't play KJ or KT or even AT out of position. but i keep doing it with QJ. i guess it is the connectedness that appeals to me. i play JT too often as well.

Yeah, guilty as charged here. I was checking my hand-by-hand profits a couple weeks ago, and I think this was my MOST UNPROFITABLE hand along with KTo. I think I was trying too often to limp in from early/mid-position, get raised and call. Or, I sometimes raise in late position and get kicked in the nuts by a KQo limper in early position. Working on this...

I also have trouble with low-mid pairs. I know the implied odds are good, but not that great when out of position. I get caught limping early and end up calling raises....33, 44, 55, 66.

I used to have that leak as well. No I usually toss them EP or MP (FI) only to see would-be-quads amongst insane betting and think: over time, this is beneficial... 8-)

Today I was playing w/ a LAgg who re-raised a 55, capped a 44 pre-flop and won both

Yeah, when you hit, it can be juicy, esp. against TPTK. However, in limit I don't think the payoff is good enough. Working on plugging the leak.
