Which Do You Prefer AK or JJ?

[atyagi]

I would say AK

Phil Hellmuth in his book "Play Poker Like The Pros" prefer AK over JJ.
I also like AK since it has got removals and is only crushed by AA. Also it’s easier hand to play.

 

[COMIRRR]

I prefer AK. Definitely hitting the river something good for me

 

[Shooter74]

AK, off course!! I always lose with JJ...

 

[CKALLDAY]

I like both but prefer AK... It’s more enjoyable to play post flop, and has another hand crushed more often than JJ, from my personal experience.

 

[navicula]

I agree that it all depends on the conditions. I prefer JJ.

 

[christmasscorpion]

I prefer jj because this hand is easy for me to play preflop and postflop.

 

[manuela2910]

I prefer AK!

 

[funkymoney]

I prefer AK you tend to lose when you go all-in with JJ and the other player has better cards also depends on the situation

 

[tihomir_kula]

AK are one of the bbest pocket hands.

 

[Daen27]

And both are good hands I often see when JJ wins AK

 

[Rahatis]

AK because.

 

[MrPokerVerse]

Jacks would be preferable over AK.

 

[antonis32123]

AK is a very strong drawing hand , I would choose it


Generally it depends , JJ can be played well in specific spots and occassions , shove small stack preflop , AK is always nice

 

[fezjones]

They about the same

 

[Raphael Zabel]

I prefer both, they are good hands for pulling big pots, depending on the situation.

 

[Kraanjhb7]

AK online. JJ live

 

[PokStorm]

Between the two my heart balance...

Starting with a pair is always welcome, but from preferring it to AK I don't agree because I never win anything with JJ and much more often with AK.

 

[vittopio]

I would say AK

On the preflop, JJ is a small favorite - so I prefer a ready hand!

 

[Shawnt]

I like the question

I think I prefer 18 over Jack Jack face King can be double suited and hit a low straight and a high straight and any pair and it beats the jacks. Good luck on the tables everyone and as always have fun

 

[Shrops]

AK

I prefer AK to JJ's.

 

[Deeznutzzzz]

AK for sure. JJ is one of my least favorite hands,

 

[danoscar]

Hello. AK is a lot lwess scary than JJ. My vote is also for AK.

 

[ComfyPanda]

AK suited > JJ > AKos would be my personal ranking. I feel like JJ pre can result in some tricky spots but AKs I'm more confident with overall.

 

[3gdata]

I personally prefer JJ 'cause I like difficulties. They make me better.

 

[ChapmanLad]

Literally 50/50. JJ probably my slight preference just for the fact you have the higher chance of hitting a set plus flush and straights are still available.
