500k database

86s -0.18ptbb/hand
Q9s -0.18
97s -0.17
93s -0.16
42s -0.15

all the worst hands are suited, looks like i overplay my flushdraws in unraised pots

While a lot of people are saying suited hands are the most negative EV in their database, I'm guessing that this is primarily because the suited hands have a smaller sample size (about a third as many suited hands as offsuit hands) so the variance in the overall winrates is higher. This poster is probably about -.10 BB/100 with many hands in the long run, with each of those hands' current winrates fluctuating around that average. The suited hands have larger fluctuations due to the smaller sample size.

pokerroom.com used to have a spreadsheet with ev results across 100 million+ hands on their site, broken down by position. In the cutoff for example, the 10 most negative ev hands are:
84 s (worst)
97 s
A6
Q3 s
A3
94 s
85 s
J2 s
A4
73 s (10th worst)

this isnt really applicable, because that includes alot of fish playing those hands. people with postflop skills like aejones or me can play all those profitably from the CO.

This question would be more interesting if it was type of hand:
small pocket pairs
small suited connectors
small suited one gap connectors
any connectors
etc

A3s for me, followed by K9s.

I think these are just hands that I happen to have been put in a lot of tough spots with, or made a lot of mistakes with though. A6s is in my top 20 winningest hands.
