A dealer once told me in Houston there is a common belief that if you raise with AQ, the flop will come King Little Little. Years later I have come to agree with this belief. Time and again I have looked down at that deceptively beautiful hand and with a glimmer of hope I watch the dealer in slow motion flop K-3-7.
My friend Suzanne Carpenter thinks I am crazy and she has become determined to find at least one person in Vegas that has heard of this King Little Little urban legend.
Not only is AQ a potential nemesis hand, but also it is what I like to call The Break Hand. This is because whenever you go on break during a tournament you can hear at least ten people on their phones saying, and he had Ace-Queen or I had Ace-Queen I want to yell at these people, its trash! Let it go, man! But, I keep my secret to myself. Oops.
Am I the only one that has heard of the AQ story? Or is this just a poker urban legend?
