On button I play all of them. Most of the time I will limp in, sometimes I will raise if the player seems to fold often pre-flop.

I play everythign for as much as a minraise. In most games i start dumping these type hands for decent raises unless oponent is so agresive to raise alnmost every hand, in such case i usualy playd ependign on raise size

Those hands are pretty worthless. But in heads up you can really get away with a lot. Against most opponents you should limp with these hands. Against particularly good players... and on an early level... I would fold and get a better hand next deal

J2s and 59s I have been playing in limit but not the others.

In NL I have been playing all of those.

edit: we are talking about from the button, I assume.

Depends on the opponent.

About the J2s...

I am addicted to suited "crappy" jacks (J6s-J2s), but i abosolutely hate suited "crappy" tens (T5s-T2s)...

If crappy jacks are playable, headsup on the button, wouldn't that mean crappy Tens are too?

I just cannot for the life of me play T5s, but I always want to play J5s for some reason... Why is this? It's like some weird poker instinct...

Re: Playable Hands
 

I play almost all of them except the 52, 23 since they have no real value and it's just a waste of your chips.

Re: Playable Hands
 

52s is the only playable hand
