In my opinion, KK looks preferable to AK. Below is a list of KK preflop equity against the most likely hands that can 4-bet:
KK vs. AA = 17.09%
KK vs. QQ = 82.35%
KK vs. AK = 69.38%
KK vs. AQ = 71.72%
KK vs. JJ = 81.96%
KK vs. 1010 = 80.3%
KK vs. KQ = 90.96%

Preflop always KK. I can fold them after a flop of course. But I rarely fold AKs preflop, it depends.

KK no brainer

If you look at any medium to high made hand they’re easy to play but kings are obviously the 2nd highest pair and can only be beat by aces. There is a 221:1 chance that any pair be dealt but AK is dominated by both aces and kings. Rule of thumb; never over play big slick. Good luck y’all.

I'm Confused

This thread is titled "AK or KK: Which Do You Prefer?" but your OP is titled "Which Do You Like Better? AA or KK" and the text seems to indicate you are asking AA vs KK but just saying...I was a bit confused...

Since it seems like you are asking AA vs KK then....

...this is a simply math question...AA has a greater chance of winning than KK or AK for that matter. And if it's KK vs AK, I'll take KK all day as well...its a made hand while AK is still a drawing hand.

AK and KK have strong hands.
But nothing will help you if your opponent collects a flush straight...:eek:

Usually AK works for me better. I haven't had a lot of luck with KK recently.

I agree that KK is stronger; however AK usually works better for me.

Is this really a question? How could anyone prefer an unmade drawing hand to the the 2nd best starting hand in No Limit Holdem? Is this like when someone claims their favorite hand is Q2s because of some perceived good luck? I will always go with a math based approach. Give me 2 Kings every time . Please:D

In this case, it seems like an obvious answer and it really is an obvious answer: KK.

KK will lose a few times, but it will win many times more than AK, even than AKs. It's a mathematical question, there are no arguments against the numbers.

:cool: I prefer to have a pair of KK in hand, it is a super strong hand, even though the A may come out, it is the flop ...
