I think AA and KK ya, QQ and JJ only if there was no raize(a big one) brefore you but even then if some one calls with like A 10s or even KQ its just to risky for me..

it depends of your stack, the oponents stacks, any raise before you

depends. if you play a tournament... and the stacks are shallow (aka under 25bb) all the hands you listed are premium so you better go with them.. maybe AQo is not that great.. i wouldnt love to call a shove with AQo. i would shove but wouldnt call. but in cash stacking more than 50bb preflop with anything less than KK against the average non-maniac player is a spew imo. maybe you can get AKs and QQ in there just to widen your range a little bit.. even make a 4bet with JJ (a 4bet that helps you get away when you get 5bet jammed) but the rest is better just calling a raise rather than 3betting. but in tourneys things are shallower. tourneys are more of a gambling form especially big field turbos

I think it should not be done with the full stack. AA and KK is Ideally .

I think only AA and KK are good for all in.. QQ depends on your position and how move did players before you...

I completely agree with Ljuk358.
I usually will only do it with AA or KK, not QQ or JJ.
I usually have really bad experiences doing this though. Usually the other person hits 2p, set, str8, or flush by the river and i feel like i shot myself in the foot. Makes me want to smash my computer into little tiny pieces sometimes.

If you are in a tournament and have 20< BB then yeah. Ship it.

100BB cash games though, probably not. Only getting it in pre with KK/AA always and QQ+, AK somewhat often.

depending on the situation, depending on the event, by its importance, if the freeroll, you can all go hand listed) and if Sunday Millin hardly would you do with 99 in the all gone before the flop

if the middle stage of the tournament the AA and KK, you can make pre flop all in and not be afraid if the bubble stage is better well-think things through. But that's my personal opinion

AA and KK are always all in for me. The other hands( like QQ and JJ) are all in when i have less then 10BB.

In cash game, only AA is all in preflop for me. KK depends on the player who shoves, if it´s a 3bet/4bet from a tight player who only plays little hands I will think about it. And I also consider JJ+ and AKo+ with loose players, there is always a maniac paying an all in with 77+ or A9s+. Position and money are important too. There is not a general rule, the context is very important to me.

AA, KK, it's a automatic call. If I'm taking the action, I prefer just raise, trying to bring at least one opponent to the game, and increase the pot.

The other hands depends how looses your opponents are. If you see the people shoving with KJ, A4, 22, what is very common in freerolls, that's OK. But in a tight table, you'll need to be really careful.

I think that the best hands to go all in pre-flop are AA KK QQ and maybe JJ only if there wasn't a rise , but you can go all in with AK suited if you know the way that your opponent play , the rest of the hands like 1010 99 KQ AQ or another cards like that I prefer to call or raise and see the flop

you can suck out with every hand including AA, KK or other pocket pairs, but ok, u make all-in and everyone is fold! u are hero who stole SB and BB/ is thats enough for u? the other thing is when u call allin with QQ+ think its not mistake. or if ur stake is <5BB :D

AA is the best and KK the next more promissing! The rest many times are defeated!

AA and KK for sure, the rest really depends, don't forget that QQ and JJ is beat by A rag or K rag if another shows up on the board!
