What would you guys prefer as your starting hand A,K or pocket aces.

Personally I prefer A,K. I feel I have more outs with this hand.

Thanks,

Of course I prefer the game to give me the strongest AA starting hand but still, it may sound weird, the 10 10 pair is my favorite ...

I prefer both, AA, AK s/o and also KK, when AA in micros -> Raise -> Re-Raise - All-In pre-flop :) Nothing more. But for sure no guarantee ;)

Yes if they both come up you are screwed. However if I have pocket aces and people call the initial bet it is quite often that you lose to a two pair or some other hand.
