This is more of a fun question.

You look at some micro tables (mostly 2NL) and you see quite a few guys playing with 90%+.

Anyone knows what they fold preflop...? and mostly why????

Considering I believe there are 169 starting hand combinations you have to figure they are in there with 152 of them. Probably the only folds are things like 2/7, 3/8, 4/9, etc - anything super gapped.

2/7 is ego hand for them.. they don't fold it lol .

I just find it amazing after they play every garbage hand possible, what makes them fold 3/8 offsuit and not 3/9. Not like 3/8 needs a bigger miracle than 3/9.

I just can't get into their heads.
Flop a set - call any pocket pair.
River a flush - ok call any 2 suited
Turn the straight - ok any connected crap
2/7 - hit 2 pair, destroy aces
3/8... i'm gonna fold

JR9477 is an unknown quantity at this point
They probably fold that other 1-10% due to large raises or 3bets (because a normal raise won't scare them off)
