Let's discuss Hand selection at the final table.
Lately medium to small pocket pairs have been my doom.
Let's start with a full table average stacked. Almost any hand you enter is going to be all in before its over.
Do you want to push and pray or wait for a big starting hand?
Opinions!

If I ain't sinkin', well I must be swimin' If I ain't dead, I must be livin' Livin' is the thing, that scares me the most And if I ain't sleepin', well I better be fishin' If I ain't anchored I will be driftin' But all and all, I'm doing pretty good, since I hit my third coast!

It's fairly close, but I'm happier with 88 simply for the fact that it beats AJ. I know it's called a coinflip, but 88 will beat AJ a few more times than not and with the number of tournaments and hands we play online that could turn out to be significant over time.

Great stuff!
Let's talk about putting more stock into 67s and 10J then AJ or KQ. I understand that both 67s and 10J give you more chances to make a monster hand. However does the time they hit out weigh the times that no one hits or they just pair AJ or KQ pair or out high card you.
I play the 67s and the J10 loose in a cash game but it that game I can just re-buy. If 67s or J10 doesn't improve your out. You might have the best hand with AJ and maybe even KQ without improving.

Didn't I get my ass kicked last time I started messing around with 67s? I think it started a mini-riot and the thread got locked.
