For me, the best hand in poker is, of course, AA. Unfortunately, even that doesn't always work.

Interesting question — but I think the premise needs challenging a little.
The best hand to go all-in with isn't always pocket Aces. It depends entirely on the situation — your stack, your position, the stage of the tournament, your opponent's tendencies.
That said, if we're talking pure mathematics — yes, AA preflop is the strongest hand you can hold. But here's the philosophical part: pocket Aces don't guarantee anything. They just give you the best starting odds. The board, the opponents, and variance still have the final word.
I know this personally. I've been all-in with AA and lost to 9-6 offsuit. Beautiful hand, brutal outcome.
So my honest answer? The best hand to go all-in with is the one where your opponent is already committed, your equity is maximum, and the fold equity is zero.
Sometimes that's Aces. Sometimes it's a well-timed bluff with nothing.
Poker has a way of humbling you regardless of what you're holding. 😄

In any case, it's easiest to bet your entire pot in poker with an AA pair.

It depends on the position, stack size, and hand range. Generally, AA outperforms all others. But what I mean is that everything is a combination; there's no set rule. I could mention several hands to go all in with, such as 77+, AJs, AQo+.

The nut flush when the board is unpaired.
