Sample size 9,000 hands

AA 46 times win 86.96% won $8.66 <-- sick
AKs 26 times win 69.23% won -$7.35
AKo 77 times win 67.53% won -11.98
AQs 31 times win 51.61% won -2.67
AQo 71 times win 50.70% won $1.06

KK 39 times win 84.62% won $22.52

better than AA
A8s 21 times win 86.96% won $9.84

fold AK play 52 win more money
52s 24 times win 12.50% won $4.72

54s 23 times win 47.83% won $7.37

I guess if I moved all in before flop with AK every time i got it I might win more money in the long run eh since it wins 69% ?

Lets try it ... i get AK 2 times today and ship it.

AKs vs AA lost
AKo vs KK lost

add another -$10 lost.

ironic isnt it .


I found a way to win with AK !! I knew i was playing this hand wrong all along.

Rather have A2s anyday at least u could flop a wheel / flush / 2 pair or trip 2s with that .. AK usually vs AK = rake

Also , if you have AK , the chance of them having KK is lower , which is why A2 - A5 is way better .

Sad to disappoint you guys, but Grailer does not accept HU challenges. He acts high and mighty, but when someone actually calls him out he gets scared and makes up some bs excuse that makes less sense than the hands he posts. I don't think he's a troll craving for attention, he genuinely believes that his "strategy" works, but he still has enough common sense to turn down HU challenges from forum members when it comes down to it, so I doubt anyone will be playing him one on one in the near future.


Dont make me laugh. you would honestly prefer A2 to Ak? Run it on equilator and you will see how much better AK is. Hope i find you on one of my tables soon to improve my +EV.AK wins nearly 74% of the time

If you are that sure the villain has AA/KK then you must fold any hand that is not , well... AA.
