    Dangerous Hands not to Overbet

    One of these hands that I have lost several tournaments with is the 2 low pair hand. It looks safer than it is. Say you have a pair of 4's and a pair of 7's after the flop. Say you bet pot and 2 players call. One has gotten a pair of kings. If he gets a 2nd pair on the turn or river or if a third pair shows on the board; you lose. : Also the 2nd player may have a 4 flu or a 4 str. Either way your 2 low pairs are less strong than they look.

    It's funny, I was thinking when I read the title, "top and bottom or bottom two."

    I agree you will lose more with low pairs than youll win thats why its best to just check or call minimum blind till you see the flop.

    Apparently you can add a full house to that list, because I just lost my whole stack on it. (Second in chips too)
    Your hole cards are the least important factor in Texas hold'em.
