The QQ bit is good... but the 66 isn't. You NEVER want to flop a set of sixes, because you will never be entirely sure if you are winning -- there will always be a possible straight or a possible higher set.

James. It was a play on words - the statement by MrsLime is true for QQ as well as 66!! (AS WELL YOU KNOW!)  |

It's fine, and you certainly want to see a flop with it. Very easy to get away from too.

hmmm, mixed reports. It was a sng on Stars. I raised preflop to get rid of (more) lousy hands but a 55 holder called and hit his trips on the flop. Shame really cos the flop looked innocent So queens ok, 6's not so great, but all in all, not the best hand because I can only hit trips with it either way. Cheers guys  |

I think thats the point Mrs Lime was making. The point is that if you have Q-Q and you hit Q-7-2, you can be 100% sure that you are ahead. You have the nuts at that point in time. You can never flop the nuts with 6-6 unless you make Quads. A-2-6 could be losing to A-A, 2-3-6 could be losing to 4-5, 4-5-6 could be losing to 2-3 etc |

Q-Q-6-6 is a crappy hand.
The 6-6 is crap for the reasons Mr Lime expressed, and the Q-Q is only worthwhile if you hit your third Queen, and even them you're going to have to survive a coin-flip (or worse) if you are to make any decent money from it.
The flush draw is almost a waste of time as it is only the 3rd nut. A jack flush won't call you unless they're loosey goosey.
