Both are very strong, but KK is a pair, so you already have something which is very strong.

KK, made hand that can continue post flop when the board missed. It's easy enough to fold if an ace flops. It just plays so much easier postflop and preflop.

KK, much better than AK

Good afternoon everyone, I always choose KK, I've been playing poker since 2018, and AK is the hand I like least, in the cash game it's a hand that tends to make a loss, when you hit top pair the villain won't call you c bet and when the villain makes a very strong hand it is difficult for AK to fold, today 03/15/21, I played 6 AK, in the cash game zoom, in 5 I didn't hit anything and the hand that hit the villain had two pair.
AK is a good hand when you have 25bb in Mtt, but when it is deep it is a hand that will give you a headache.
KK, it's a much better hand than AK.

KK, KK is much stronger than AK, easy to play even when flop turns A. It's one of my favorite hands.

It all depends on the position at the table and my stack.Somewhere I think that AK is not such a bad hand and can seriously scare your opponents.But if you want to intimidate the whole tournament, then without KK there is no place).Both hands are good in their own way-the main thing that will give us the layout on the table.

Just about probability, it is obvious, preflop the KK. It is not really a question to anyone... (I guess... but hope yes, so I can take their stacks some day in the future....)

A pair of kings has an obvious advantage here.

With KK you are losing for AA and ahead of all other hands. With AK you lose to AA, KK and flip with all other pairs. KK for sure.

Take a KK any time, over AK
in my mind AK is over rated
I have lost way too many times with AK

I prefer KK because it’s a better hand than AK pre flop. Also, I don’t remember to have may bad beats with this hand.

I prefer AK even more more if it is the same nipe. I can win with high A or straight.
