Poll: In Texas Hold 'Em, how do you play pocket deuces?

I usually fold pocket deuces because it is most likely a losing hand and the only way to improve on it is if another deuce hits or by any miracle you end up with a boat which could still be beaten by a better boat

    Depends on position. I'll make a decent raise in late position, trying to induce the rest to fold, IF there are no raises (just calls) prior to getting to the blinds.

    If I'm called by no more than 2 players, I'll make a continuation bet on the flop - as much as 1/3 the pot. If I'm called again, I know it's time to slow down and not risk any more chips.
