Pocket 2s good in every situation? Pocket 2s good in every situation?

Ok, so my journey in poker is a bit unique in the sense that my uncle was a local poker legend... He mostly played in barbershops for free haircuts, but in my small town, he was the king. He even met his wife because of poker, and even though she cheated on him constantly (with a guy named Jack King... I **** you not) she was his big-tittied prize.

But anyway, I read all the poker greats (Dan Harrington, Tony G, etc.), been playing poker for months, and come in 1st place every night at the 55-cent games on Global Poker, so I'm no slouch. But there's some advice my uncle gave me that I gotta run past some of you poker pros.

My uncle Larry basically told me this piece of advice. He said "dkog, remember this piece of poker advice... Never fold pocket 2s in any situation. In fact, every time you have pocket 2s, you gotta go all in."

Now this piece of advice might be controversial, but trust me, my uncle Larry said that in 6,000 different scenarios with pocket 2s, he always won. Always got the nut three-of-a-kind, full house, even a straight flush on multiple occasions with pocket 2s.

And I swear to god, I implement this advice every night in my 55-cent tournaments, and it never fails. But some people tell me I'm crazy, but I'm telling you, it's just not a superstition. Pocket 2s are literally the nuts.

Now my uncle Larry also had some other strange advice that I don't actually always follow, like 'Always three-bet 7J suited from the big blind," and "fold KJ only in third position," and "the small blind has a small dick." Some advice is plain ****ing weird, I know. But I find that a lot of it is sound.

How about y'all? What's your opinion on the pocket 2s theory?

Perhaps your uncle could explain how he always got the nut three-of-a-kind with 22, given that 22 cannot possibly make the nut three-of-a-kind.
