I agree with your point of view. In all in pre flop, KK would leave with advantage because it is a ready hand, but fate always surprises with the cards of the table.... hahaha

if its 1 vs 1 i would say AK but if everyone is going all in then you know alot of people would have a "a" so catching it might be hard for them on the flop

I have no preference. Every combination comes up sooner or later so I take them and play them as they come.

Absolutely KK. I even prefer KK to AA. I seem to get good action WAY more often when I have KK than when I have AA.

Of course, that can backfire, but when it doesn't it can vault me quite a ways toward an FT in one go, and I'm all for that!

preflop is always preferable KK because it is already a strong and safe hand

that depends on many factors, you have to see the initial letters first but actually I prefer AA pair

I would take AK probably because AK sometimes much easier to fold than KK. I have really bad luck when I get KK and most of the time I lost a lot of chips or everything

I'm fine with either but I would prefer Kings over AK, it's a made hand you're not having to draw with, decisions are much easier pre and postflop.

KK is the equity favourite. It's also the easier hand to play.

Hello. I prefer KK. For me, KK = 83%, ako = 71%, AKs = 64% wins.

I think I won the most with KK in my hand. I like to play this hand because it is relatively safe. Often a strong raise and the appearance of an ace on the flop also give you a win.

For sure KK is the better hand. AK is also good, but you need to understand sometimes situation on the board, because sometimes after the flop it,s also can be a garbage hand.

AK suited - such a nice hand. Also, if you have AK, there is slightly lower chance you are against AA or KK because you already hold one A and K. KK all the way but if an ace shows on the flop, I feel horribly bad.
