Message: [QUOTE="kraemer, post: 4446093, member: 20033"] The higher odds to make a straight are included in the calculations that show that AA is the best possible card combination... If You are more successful with AK ( over a hand sample that is statistically relevant ) then You have a leak in your game that You can fix so You will win more with AA than with AK in the end... Here's where it becomes obvious in my opinion. Usually You will make a large bet preflop with AK or AA. Who is going to call? A lot of times You will find yourself up against a player with a pocket pair. Everytime this happens AK is a coinflip while AA is a huge favorite... Compare that to the odds of catching a 10 to A straight with AK... [/QUOTE]
