Chance-of-winning percentages

Does anyone have, or know where to get, a chart over how some of the more common hands measure up against each other? E.g. AA vs. KK. Preflop.

I searched the forums, but didn't find quite what I was looking for. The reason I'm asking is that I'm at home (have a cold), and decided to make a little simulator for checking just this. I've done some basic verification of it, but it seems now to be telling me that while AA will beat KK 81% or so of the time, AA will only beat QQ 67% of the time. Straights should maybe factor in to it, but the difference is larger than I intuitively expected.

Or if anyone knows how two specific hands "should" match up, I can go ahead and test it against that as well.

Sorry about the formatting but i done it twice and lost it twice, so it will have to do like this.

wow, tenbob
great info

wizardofodds.com is also a great site for poker data and percentages
there are also hand calculators that will give you the % of winning, losing or tying with any number of hands against each other
can't think of a site with a simulator on it but just search the cc forum and you'll find a link for sure

There's a simulator at cardplayer.com on the main page. Just insert the hands and let it do the work.
