IMHO 70%, besause rivals can often get into thrips or 2 pairs. To a greater extent, this also depends on whether you have screened out the minor advantages of the player’s cards by raising pre-flop.
I would like to supplement my previous offer with the fact that after the onset of the prize zone, players begin to play very aggressively, playing a wide range of their cards and hoping for jump. Most often it is here that AAs work perfectly, allowing you to increase the bank not in 80%, but in 95% of cases. So many people call or raise with hands like AK, AQ, KJ, JJ, 99 and similar, so that having a couple really beat them.
However, at the same time, at the initial stages of the tournament, when people open even wider (having suited connectors and hands of type 89) paradoxically, however, aces can lose due to the fact that one of the many players get two pairs or thrips. In general we must not forget that in the initial stages of tournaments it is better to play as carefully as possible and proceed from cards that are on the board.
