We have already discussed this issue in this forum.
find him. there is a lot of information from the players, read the discussion. it was very interesting to participate. many opinions on this issue.
in general, the chance with KK against AA is always there, but not high.
on my practice in the game very often on the table is A or K .

Nikolay thats not his question. He asks what is the chance that when he has KK someone else at the table has AA in the same hand. Now the answer. It should be only a slight chance of that happening but on pokerstars, you get that every other tournament.

Unfortunately very often and it is very bad, at least it does not happen in tournaments with big money because it is very bad, and it's very difficult to fold anyway KK pre-flop :)

This requires math that i dont have time to bother with. Lets just say its very low chance of it happening.

The probability that you or an opponent will get AA at hand is 0.45%.
The probability of obtaining KK is about 0.9%
proceed from this.
or did I misunderstand your question again?
for this there are probability tables and on them you can already think whether there is against your KK from opponent AA .

Online V. Live

There seems to be a disparity between live and Online Software. Online seems to happen more often then i've seen live.

To me the program Equilab has counted the effectiveness of AA - 81.26% KK - 18.74%. This is the probability of winning AA against KK.

My question is not what is the chance of KK to beat AA but what is the chance that when you hold KK someone else is holding AA.

it's easier then without any calculations to say that the probability then I would say 50% to 50%

the chance of getting a specific pocket pair is close to 0.45% (I'm travelling, so don't have the table with me, but that number I remember, I think; I'll check next week).
So:
- you getting KK, roughly 0.45%
- on a table of 9, there is 8*0.45=3.6% that someone else gets AA (actually slightly higher, as you already have two cards which KK; not 1 A).
The probability of both happening in the same hand is 0.0045*0.036 = once every 6000 hands.

I wonder ... I did not go into details, but why are the probabilities not the same? and K and A in deck 4, absolute equality in number. So the probability of loss should be the same?

Hi

It sure seems like it happens to me a lot. I get KK and think this is my chance to double up and Bam I run into AA.

The data given in the tables is only a probability. poker game of dispersion and various unexpected situations at the table. it's not just math but also intuition and luck. one I think is correct. that with this situation you will not encounter often.
