As you play Texas Holdem, what do you do with medium pockets pairs (7s, 8s or 9s)? Hang in there and play is the instant gut reaction of most every Texas Hold’em Poker player when they’re dealt any kind of pocket pair. It is a pair, after all. The problem with pocket sevens, eights and nines is that they’re so susceptible to overpairs.

Lots of Texas Holdem players have a “favorite hand” in the betting online. It could be a hand that won a competition for them, or some other memorable hand. Certainly, everybody’s fave is pocket aces, but some have “personal attachments” to others.
