I prefer a ready hand. That's why I choose QQ

I prefer QQ, although it can destroy you if a K gets on the table.

Without thinking, AK with a high probability of final victory like AA, KK. Straight, flush, royal.🙂🙂🙂

I'd rather have AK because it has better potential.

QQ all the time - both pre and post.
Tend to agree with that. Its often difficult to get paid with AK, when you flop top pair, because AXX and KXX are very obvious boards, where the preflop raiser will get a lot of respect. Which is great, when we are bluffing, but not so great, when we actually have it. When QQ is an overpair, it tends to be easier to get value, because the hand unblock top pair and draws. Of course there will sometimes be an A or K on the board, but not as often as AK will miss the flop. And even with an A or K on the board, QQ can often get to showdown and win a small or medium sized pot.

I think better hand is QQ however in my situation i prefer to play this hand carefully. There is almost always some king or ace waiting me for play all in and then they hit K or A in the flop so QQ is better then AK but patient with this hand is needed for me.
