Doesn't matter who you ask. Hell, ask Durrrr, he'll still tell you that a huge part of his overall winnings are AA/KK.
Foucault thought that "you always win small pots or lose big ones with AA/KK" so he looked it up to see....

his biggest pots were with AA/KK and it wasnt even close

If you took all your biggest pots and put a percentage on it of course AA/KK will have more big pots. But my biggest pots are coolers. 2pair>Big pairs, set>Big pairs, Flush>flush and trips>trips.

i seem to win more big pots with sets, straights and flushes than AA and KK ... i may start tracking this better.

i doubt durr wins 51 percent of his money with AA and KK.

The reason its not as obvious that you win so much with big pairs is because a good amount of the time you will just take a lot bbs down preflop whereas with a set the only time you win is when you take a big pot down post flop but you arent remembering the other 7 times you lost your initial investment by not hitting a set.

Good point. I was thinking maybe 40% AA/KK but I have no evidence. Gotta go with the evidence.

It doesn't matter whether you win big pots with AA/KK or not. In online play, AAwon 12 bb per average every time a winning player got dealt
It. KK was like 9bb/ hand. That's like 18 bb/100 hands; that's more than anyone was winning online.

So one way to look at it is that your profits are most of what you win with AA and KK; your winnings with some AA and KK, and every other hand you play are just paying for your blind losses.

Don't get seduced by the allure of the big pot; for every time you flop 2 pair with 85s and stack an overpair, there are 49 times you don't. AA and KK don't have those built in costs; they are just steady, consistent winners.

Hard drive is in. Some screws were little bitches but it's done. Going to install windows and make sure everything is working before fixing it all together. Need a new fan too, old one is buzzing and loud. They're cheap though.

Thinking I'm not going to transfer everything over and just start fresh. Everything important is in my email or laptop.
