Personally, I'd prefer AA to AK - I've only got 1 A in the deck while they have 1 A and possibly 3 K to aim for, and they'd need to hit at least 2 of them to beat you, assuming flush or straight don't come into the equation!
Yeah, but in this case the other player had one of this cards (my pocket) and another one with lower value and without a hit there, he needed 2 of this lower card, or hit a flush or hit a stright without any str8 draw in flop (like he did).
He needed two hits, turn and river to win and... sight... he was so lucky
