If you want to win at Texas Holdem Poker, you should know what the worst hand and the most dangerous hand in poker is, and they aren't necessarily the same hand. Ask any Texas Holdem Poker player what the worst hand is, the worst two hole cards, and he or she will invariably say, the 2-7 unsuited (U). There is no denying that the 2-7 (U) is the hardest hand to build a winner with, but that doesn't necessarily make it the worse or better still, the most dangerous hand, in fact, the 2-7 (U) is one of the best hands you can draw.



Puzzled about that statement? Here is why those two hole cards aren't so bad. When was the last time you lost on a 2-7 unsuited? Starting to understand now? The worst hand in Texas Holdem Poker is the hand you seriously underestimate. Opening with a weak hand and playing it wrong is bad enough, but sticking with it when you should have folded is even worse.









More players have gone bust with a pair of pocket rockets (AA) more times than with a 2-7 U. How well do you know the expectations for each pair based on the players at the table or in the pot? For instance, you're sitting on a big slick, suited (S), before the flop, there are six players at the table, what are the odds that there is one other player with an ace in the hole?



Believe it or not, many players can't answer that very quickly, but almost everyone knows what the worst hand is. I won't deny that poker is a betting and bluffing game, but you still need to know the odds and expectations, the probabilities, otherwise you are playing in the dark. Not knowing how to play any hand makes it the most dangerous hand you can draw.
