For me, it's AK. From 22 I rarely go all-in, and call with such a hand all-in another player would not.

Between AKo and 22, 22 has better raw equity but AK has better expected value. Understanding the difference between these 2 concepts will teach you a lot about poker so I recommend looking it up. If you are not all in preflop then 22 will do very badly.

AKs and 22 are approximately a flip. But again, unless you are all in pre, 22 will realize equity terribly and be forced to fold a lot

I chose AK and with 22 almost certainly I will not go all in

Despite AK is just a draw I prefer it rather than 22. Suited is even better.

hello, between ak and 2-2 I would choose ak of the same suit this card has a chance to win even if there is no ACE or king, straight or flush.

AK is so strong. A pair of 2's is the worst pair. I'm taking AK.

I choose AK! because with 22 there is always a thought that anyone who supports even with a minimum card of 23 and catches a pair of 3 wins me! very disappointing, but with AK I always think: I did everything I could!))

22 in theory but AK w/o a shadow of a doubt via experience!

Though it's a potential coin flip I would still choose AK because it has more playability post flop. Deuces is always hard to play just like having Jacks.
