pairs vs. ak/Aq

[thejudge]

why is it every time i have a race when i have a pair i lose to AK or AQ....I'm supposed to be favourite....nope.

About a 54 to 45 favorite pre-flop. And I'm sure you don't lose everytime, just seems like it.

Like I know I'm going to lose everytime with QQ, but I actually don't. But it is the hand that I get knocked out of tourneys with a lot, so I remember it. When I win, I'm still in so the memory isn't as strong.

Unless you have AA/KK is pretty much a coin flip.

I never say other way, what i say is that pretty much is a coinflip unless you have AA/KK

QQ-22 vs AK it is 55/45, (if AK is suited is 52/47), but that means that from 10 times you going to win only 5 (i don´t call that to be a favourite) and also don´t mean you will win those 5 in a row, only mean that have almost same chances to lose or win., oh yes but with a 0.5 extra in your way).

What im saying is that is not like you are way ahead, it is so close that you could lose 100 times in a row or win 100 times in a row.

In those cases it turns into luck, so for me is a coinflip.

AQ vs JJ-22 (AJ vs TT etc) same thing. Pretty much every pair vs over cards is a flip.

Well mathematically you are wrong logan ...but the way it looks now u must be right....I just went out with QQ vs A9 ...ace on the flop ofcourse ....10 and counting.

My missus says that if u have a pair vs. A anything u will lose.....75% of the time..


again rubbish odds wise but i am starting to believe it.

KK-22 vs Ax = 62/37 (pretty much 60/40)

Maybe you should look more on ranges.
