What do you prefer to have in your hand? AT or KQ?

[Diegol]

I had to say A10 because this hand had better chances to win but is easier to play KQ than A10, because when you hit the 10 there are a lot of hands that could win you and when you hit the A you don't have that good of a kicker.

 

[andreigabor]

For me KQ is more solid, especially if it is suited.

 

[doggycfg]

I like to play KQ!

 

[ParagonPoker]

AT is statistically superior, but personally I like a bit of KQ, not as many hands dominate you.

 

[PokerNuts01]

AT without hesitation!

 

[pashkawell]

Of course, A 10. The chances for victory are higher.

 

[eulukaas1]

I like to play KQ!

Thank you for reply. Well thought out.

 

[SoulCracker]

K Q...because they're both surrounded by help in the hand. Besides, a Q is part of a computerized hand, and shows herself more than any other card in the deck, statistically.

Actually reading everyones responses to this question has been enlightening. Thank you for posing it. According to Omahahaha i never would have realized ATo to be 23rd ranked best compared to KQo at 15th.. what would ATsuited be compared to KQs?

 

[Bagdalac4ever]

I prefer KQ. I always won with KQ and when I had A10, somebody had AJ or AQ. That I have noticed since I started to play poker, when I have A10 someone always have A with stronger kicker.

 

[wlad20082009]

A 10 K or Q without a difference only approached . :top:

 

[FullStrength]

Either hand is a coinflip

I prefer KQ (suited) over A10. It's my favorite starting hand so maybe I'm biased. You can be open ended with KQ so to me it's better.

 

[sanych]

Often depends on the position, but QK

 

[1putnik]

I would prefer premium connectors KQ.

 

[steve101651]

Personally I prefer Kings. But I understand that Ace is the favourite to win.

Thank you for reply.

 

[gunit]

It all depends on the position, but I'd prefer KQ)

 

[eulukaas1]

Thank you for reply.

Thank you. The best answer.

 

[GIB]

I prefer KQ, but math says the following AT - 59,87% against KQ - 39,76% on condition heads up

 

[reggie_g]

all in situation a 10 vs kq , il take a-10

 

[bumerangue]

It depends on the circunstances, I prefer KQs when in early stages, but AT plays very well in the final stages

 

[MoorsT10]

A 10 ofcourse, just look at the percentages and it's clear. You have more showdown value preflop than KQ. I prefer to have these cards in position otherwise they are very tricky.

 

[vse i sra3y]

I prefer A10 and I think that this hand is stronger than QK and it's easier to play.

 

[robertocoelho]

I prefer A10, with KQ I do not get along very well

 

[David macdonald]

Kq, I like kq but both A10 and KQ should be played with caution.
