I am curious to see what hands people like to raise with? You can indicate which position, table amounts or number of players if you want. Hope this creates some good feed back. Good luck everyone!

Suited connectors 78++ 66-aa Ats-ako, depends ofc on stage and type of tourney. but i dont rly get the question. Just load a starting handchart and look which hands are raiseable on which positions. If i got something wrong, forgive me, dont like that thread
It depends on what I play. Omaha - I raise +80% of my hands preflop. NL HE (SNG) - AA - TT, when blinds get higher any pair and suited connectors. NL HE (cash games, 6-10 tables) - any pair and connectors - depends on the position. NL HE (HU) - I raise +70% of my hands preflop.

AA
Always comfortable to raise with AA. Simply because it is the best hand.
My favourite hand though is either Q8 suited or QJ suited. Historically I have hit some real monsters and got huge payoffs on them so naturally they have become my favourite hands. That does not mean that I don't throw them away if I am out of position or the blinds is simply to small to risk anything.
