I will take QQ more often than AK. Hope for the best run out possible- where I hit a set and crush it 🥳

Hi :)
I would prefer QQ. Obviously, you will have better odds preflop with QQ.

I prefer to have whatever RNG favours on every occasion or board , which is different dependingly on players' number in the pot , pot odds , way of betting prefloop or post flop, etc etc

The intelligent answer considering that it is a head-to-head QQ against AK, that is to say I prefer QQ, but there are times when in adrenaline you feel more comfortable waiting to connect an A or K; but obviously I repeat what I said before, I prefer to play with QQ and for those who say that the hand cannot improve, I have found myself in the situation that my opponent has QQ and the flop throws XXQ and leaves you with almost no possibilities.

AK blocks hands such as AA and KK, against other hands we will either play coin or dominate. What can you say about “ladies” who often let you down

For me, it is better to play with AK than with QQ.

AK is a drawing hand that misses more often than not, a cruel of hand in my experience. That said if I have QQ all in PF some idiot will suck out with big slick.....

Hello everyone.
I'd prefer QQ because this hand is completely better than AK.

I prefer QQ if i am to go all in preflop

I prefer AK to play through the streets
Queens are a very slight favourite. I would say a bigger favourite if there is a raise and call in front of you because quite likely there are two aces out, but the rule of thumb is if you have the queens, the ace will flop or even worse river, while if you have AK there will be 5 rag board or some such.

Despite the odds, QQ usually works better for me. I usually get beat with AK for some reason.

QQ is the stronger hand, therefore QQ, though AK has good blockers and can be played more aggressively pre (in 100bb deep cash games)

QQ, since it’s always much better be with two queens by my side rather than two other different things 😂.
And may the flop till the river, the board be with me😊

It just happened again to me tonight in a Tournament. I folded an AK hand, went in the QQ hand. Which do you think worked best???

I prefer QQ, AK are high cards. But it depends on the table and who is playing.
