AJs > KQs
AJ is pushing equity vs a wider range
KQs id prefer deep for straight value

super deep AJs is superior for overflushing and nut potential etc.

on KQT etc AJ will cooler
JJT etc..

both hands are the same to me as medium strength, and I play with my bet, when several people also entered the pot with a bet, I usually try to steal the pot with such hands in late position.

Vs a range of hands AJ is going to be somewhere between 10%-20% better off equity wise and Hu AJ Vs KQ is 60/40 in favour of AJ so for me it's pretty clear AJ is the better hand.

AJ is ranked better but I prefed KQ, it gives me the impression that I can better combine it on the river;)

sorry forgot write. What hand likes more to go all in before flop.
I think, depends how many people going all in.
But I love more AJ to go all in before flop. äBut mostly KQ is more active

If you choose from the proposed hands, it is mainly AJ, since initially with A percentage of winning more.

I honestly prefer KQ, especially if they're suited.... unless an Ace on the board.

Whenever I choose to play either of those hands I get squashed. In fact I can't win but I'll keep trying to learn..haha

I play both pretty strongly, but Id take the AJ for the ace. Over time QK has probably won just as much for me :)

I love KQ more, but before watch how many people going all in , if 1-1 then i go, but if 3people going all in before me then i fold KQ and sometimes AJ too. AJ is not very good hand. I think A10 is littlebit more better. :D

Both are not particularly reliable when there are 8 people at the table, but it is better to choose A J , because many play aces with a smaller kicker.

i think KQs more preferable for me, because As more likely to stay in game then Ks for most people(they will fold K3 for example), by this i reducing the likelihood of K-players

AJ all the way it will be easier to call knowing that ace high is good. It always just depends how the hand is played out if I think someone is bluffing and they totally missed the flop I'll keep calling with my ace high cmnoause most likely they also have an ace with a weaker kicker depending on there bets I might be able to tell if he has Ak or Aj and KQ shhhhh nah I means it's a nice hand just have to play it correctly

It all depends if it is KQ suited I prefer it to AJ but if both are offsuited it is logical and obviously play AJ it's a better hand

I often times get involved in pots when I shouldn't with these two exact hands. I like AJ and play it often especially when it is suited but I feel like its a trap hand and so is KQ. Now if you are in position I think both are playable hands but I prefer AJ.
