typical flip coin, what do you prefer, which hand do you like more and which one is more profitable, I love QQ

Depends on the play of the opponents

It's weird. Whatever the opponents, in my opinion, both AK and QQ are actually the same as flipping a coin, so the question arises what in this case can depend on the opponents?

I totally get your love for QQ! It’s one of the most reliable hands in poker and statistically edges out AK in coin flips. Personally, I lean towards QQ in most situations because of its consistency and ability to dominate weaker hands. However, I’ll admit, there are spots where AK’s flexibility (especially in tournaments) makes it my go-to hand – like when I need fold equity or when I’m shoving in late-stage play.

In the long run, QQ is likely more profitable, but it all depends on the dynamics. For example, deep stacks and multi-way pots? Definitely QQ. Short-stacked in a tournament? AK might be the better play.

How about you – do you always play QQ aggressively, or do you ever slow-play it depending on the table?

It's easy to answer the QQ, it's already a pair formed and the AK, they're only high cards. Then see in the ranking of plays who has the greatest weight. The AK can be knocked down by 22, or any other pair on the table.

If we literally put AK vs QQ, I will always prefer QQ definitely.

 

[Snake2007]

I prefer QQ, but even if even a K gets on the table, you're screwed.

It happens, I call them work accidents, but you have to know that you can't always win the flips, it's green or red, it depends on chance and the opponents. I prefer QQ more also AK I can throw in the bubbles.

The probability of winning a wheel with QQ is greater than an AK, but I prefer a KQ because I have won many more wheels than an AK and QQ.

QQ is the best option. I would prefer QQ. There are still a little more chances, and this is the decisive factor in this choice.

 

[SPANKYSN]

I will always take the made hand preflop...less internal stress.

.AK most of the time always wins! The equity about the QQ is great.

Another draw, the ev says one thing, the result is never guaranteed. Have seen KK get crushed so often, it's hard not to fold, from past losses. Depends on the situation, normally, I'd play KK fairly strong. But if I'm on the bubble, KK is not to be trusted. Either play smartly or fold

QQ obviously since it's a favorite all-in and is also a little better and easier to play post-flop.

 

[edenman1]

Love them both, but I would go with QQ

It is quite common to face a 3-bet when we have strong hands like AK or QQ. However, playing 4-bet is not always the best solution.

 

[Macaroon]

QQ against just one AK is favourite, but against two or three other hands, whilst it may still be technically favourite (in other words it has the best odds) the chances of actually winning are decreased (but against that the potential winnings are increased of course). On the opther hand a friend oof mine told dme he had lost with QQ no fewer than 22 times in a row.

 

[Shooter74]

A coin flip classic!! Although QQ has a small advantage I prefer AK

 

[greenlarrow]

I like Q Q better.

 

[Rachidao]

Queens for me.

 

[besttest11]

Queens

 

[Toruk Makto]

It usually gives logic!

 

[monkeytilter]

QQ every day of the week. Yes if it all goes in pre AK has ~50%, but with some post flop play I reckon AK lucky to realise half of that 50%..
