10 10 is worthless unless u push pre with everyhand 22 or better and half 3x lead on nxt big stack. so i would take 1010 or even 22 with 3x stack and high blinds mid to late in tourney over kq or even ak all day.

Worthless? You know that you only have about a 33% chance of flopping more than K-high, with KQ, right? For TT, it's 100%. Oh, and unlike KQ, you're ahead of Ace-high. And you're only behind a pair of Jacks or better.

KQ is good for opening in late position. That's about it. You're as likely to make a straight with it as you are with 23. People like to play suited Aces, so, in a big pot, don't be upset when someone else has a better flush than you. If I'm in the SB, I don't even like to call in a 9-way limped pot with KQs. It is so apt to get you into trouble.

TT, thats already made pair, KQ is stronger but i wont come every flop.


How, exactly, is it "stronger"? Was that on a hand-strength chart that you saw, or something? Because it's not on any that I've ever seen. But, I have seen several that put TT ahead of AKs.

Preflop I choose 10/10 because it is a medium high hand and already formed gives you some advantage against KQ preflop

both hands can kill you, but i would always start with pocket pair no matter. See if you can get hands to fold preflop

10 10 on start with AllIn maybe the only chance to press away K Q but it´s difficult

I would take a 10 10 beacuse that hand is one of the best 10 hands, Most profitable hands in NL holdem are :

AA, KK, QQ, JJ, 1010, 99, 88, AK suited, AK off, AQ suited

pair is always pair :d had better equity than KQ :)

I'd rather rely on the safe, you haven't risked 10 10 yet! clear since you already have a sure couple

KQ probably for me out of the two. My favourite hand is AK suited, but my friend always goes all in with 10-10.
Very predictable, we know what hand she's got by now. Then she gets upset and says "you wasn't supposed to call me!!!" when she walks into KK or AA.....

I definitely choose KQ in any situation.



bro, for me it depends on the moment if it is a KQ with the same suit, or the position that comes the 1010, it depends depends a lot...............

It depends, but a pair it's a pair even if it's 10's.

NEVER NEVER KQ unless in position to try for a preflop steal , ALWAYS ALWAYS 10 10 no mater what position unless you get a all in after your preflop raise then fold your 10 10 preflop

I prefer TT (10/10). I don't even think that KQ is an so awesome hand.

That's a question I would rather answer after the river, but if I had to answer pre-flop I would have to slightly favor 10 10!!!!!:D:D
