Online Poker Tip: 5 Worst Starting Hands for Texas Holdem Poker
Summary
We’ve covered the top 10 starting hands in Texas Holdem, so it's only right to discuss the 5 worst starting hands you might encounter. The rule? If you have any of these, it's best to fold and move on!
1) 2-7 (offsuit)
This is the worst hand you can get. There’s no potential for a straight or flush, and even if you hit a pair, it’s just a pair of 7s. The odds of a full house are too remote to consider. Your best move? Fold!
2) 2-8 (offsuit)
Slightly better than 2-7, but still a poor choice. A pair of 8s only beats a pair of 7s. Again, no straight or flush possibilities here, so folding is advised.
3) 3-8 (offsuit)
Once again, you have no chance for a straight or flush, leaving you hoping for a pair of 8s. Don’t wait around for a full house?"it's wiser to fold and wait for a stronger hand.
4) 2-9 (offsuit)
A pair of 9s beats 8s, but it’s still a weak hand. Folding is the best strategy here.
5) 2-6 (offsuit)
There’s a slim chance for a low straight, but that’s about it. It’s better to fold and hold out for a more promising hand.
These are the five starting hands that should prompt an early fold. If you’re feeling lucky and choose to play through, may fortune favor you. Understanding both the best and worst hands strengthens your game and enhances your time at the table. While long shots can occasionally pay off, disciplined players often leave the table satisfied.
