Winning Starting Hands

[TrueBritt]

I play mostly 1-2 and 2-4 on PP.
Vpip: 17%
PFR: 9%

My pokertracker stats over 35k hands tell me that I win with pairs and broadways, but not with suited connectors, except in late position down to 87s. Angel Largay's book says that unsuited gappers can be played in loose passive games, but my stats say otherwise. What is your experience? What hands do you win with over a large sample size?

[jsnipes28]

from you stats it appears that you only play pairs and suited broadways so those are likely to be your biggest winning hands.

the converse is true of SC's- since you don't play them you will be hard pressed to win too much with them either.

There have probably been lots of threads about this. Remember that you don't have to make a profit with opportunistic hands for playing them to be +EV if you get paid off more with your decent hands.
