I was also talking most hated hand in limit.
Mine has to be JT off. Terrible in early post, vurnerable in late. Just a gross hand.
(yes I'm bored)
other things that boggle my mind slightly, don't raise me on the flop get me to call you with my top set on a non-draw board and then don't go for my check/raise on the turn

JJ absolutely the worst hand. It looks so pretty, but if an over hits, what do you do?
Another peeve, the OOP limp caller. They limp in for $30. You raise $200 and they call. If they are calling your raise, why didn't they make the raise in the first place? |

| QQ. They are so hard to get away from. I almost never win with those cards. |

| 5To because you can't make a 9 high straight. I really like making a nine high straight using only one card in my hand. |

| JJ or TT. They both look very nice, and in NL are very nice hands, but in Limit they are the devil. |

Agreed; A-J and A-Q are also difficult hands to play, especially offsuit. |

| For me, KT offsuit. For some reason it almost always looks kind of good to me. It is one of those hands that looks good but really isn't that strong. I am better at not playing it now when I shouldn't though. |

It differs for 6max, but yes KTo is on my list of least favorite hands to play. Another is getting a small suited connector in the SB, like 54s--those hands are like drugs. Don't do drugs, drugs are bad, mmmkay

And the first time you ever play 54s you flop a str8 with A23 and get tons of action because two other players had an A.... Now it's got you HOOKED! lol |

This is one of the reasons poker has so many losers that are willing to pony up cash time and time again. Donkeys will typically have a winning session starting out, and they will have done so with poor decision making and crappy card selection reinforcing bad habits that take a long time (if ever) to break.
However, I do love villain calling w/ 54s in the SB when I raise UTG+1, it tells me I'm in a good game. |
