I would like to start the disscusion about players who play with cards, which should be folded before seeing the flop and still win by incredible luck to a really nice hand of other player..

It happened to be so many times that I would like to know why is it and does it happen often to the others? I play on small limits (0,1/0,2, 0,25/0,5, 0,5/1$ ) and maybe people on those tables play just for fun, not to gain profits? Or maybe J3o, 84o or 34s are cards worth playing..? It is really annoying to lose your AA to a two pairs eq. 33 and 66 on the river..

Please share your experiences, on high and also small limit tables.

50% of it has to do with the way you're playing your big hands, and the other 50% is dumb luck. One of them you can fix the other you cannot.

Some part of that is also pure human psycology, not remembering things that happen as you expected while always remember things that happen when unexpected. I.e. you don't remember ever time you've won with AA, because your sposed to win with AA.

It's the same thing as people remembering eating an apple and the kettle falling over and linking eating an apple with the kettle falling over, forgetting all the other times they have eaten an apple.

Also I agree with 4tun8 that it is not unlikely you are missplaying yor big hands also.

I wish I was high

Thank you for your answers, but I really didn't mean exactly AA or any of Very Strong hands (I've always known it a tricky card and you might as well win or lose with it - 'don't fall in love with Ace'). I just mean the times when people played (not on Big blinds) even raised pre-flop with 25s or another garbage hand.. And they got e.g. 2KT, keep playing and at river got 5.. Those and similar situations, also very often finished with poor and bullet-straights(or how they are called..).

Truth is in NL Holdem that any hand can win or lose big or small. As far as big hands getting outdrawn, well that is just gonna happen a lot. Players now days no how to play good preflop cards for the most part if they want to. The game now days is post flop play and watching patterns, reads, tells, etc. I will sometimes play my big pairs slower in postion, usually not out of postion. Depends on the table, I think that win you have a big hand that is a favorite, why would you wanna chase the other players away. See a flop and from there, just say you have a pocket pair high or low and you make a set, someone my stack off a big hand like AK or something, implied odds. The game for sure is post flop play now days and don't fall in love with any one hand big or small, things can change on the pluck of a card. Read flops and players and go from there, be willing to fold any hand any time when the cards flop scary.
