What % of time do your Aces Win?

With so many threads about how many times Aces lose, here's your chance to show how many times they hold up.

Aces are supposed to win about 80% of the time

Feel free to post your PT or Hem, Or whatever you use to show your results.

State ring or tourney or Both, # of hands only if you wish ( and add whatever info you feel helpful)
......................................................................

Mine...

Ring 82.4%

Tourney 79.82%

Heres mine. Blue one is ring...

I checked out why I didn't have 100%vpip in tourney and it must have been times I was sitting out...

Ring = 89.9% winning over about 100k hands

Tourney = 76% winning over about 35k hands

Tourney's must hate me. My KK is only 71%...

I take it we are talking about all in preflop only?

I've had AA 140 times and won 86% on iPoker (22k hands)

No Dont care if you limp push or raise. Just a general idea of how they holdup.

In that case 140 times, 86%

But that means the statistic about 80% isn't correct - AA v any two is more like 85/15. The % won depends a lot on skill level, board texture, opponents, etc

Tourney= 275times AA, 92.7% win (58k hands)

I love my Aces

Ring - 2,203 times 91.56% win

Sexy graph:

Very Very Sexy

when i limp rr all in with them, id say 96% of the time.(cause of folds or heads up)
when i limp and 5 go to flop, if i get to the river i win 70% of time, otherwise i laid them down already.(note was trying to get it in pre flop, more likely to lay them down after the flop if playing deepstacked)
when i raise, get heads up, i win 90% of time as i play them fast
when i raise, get two or more opp, i win 76% of time.
when i rr someone i win 96% because they fold or get in with AK or KK, and sometimes QQ.
those are my guess on winning percentage, i win quite often with them as i play them fast, longball, when you play them small especially in deepstack poker you will lose with them its like they change to a 50/50 hand.

all in preflop they hold about 82%, all in on flop 70%

Aces win more often when you don't play them like this villain.

dam u run good

i would say 80% of the time aces hold up. however, against donkeys, it never does. because donkeys easily can flop 3 of a kind. its not surprising that they hit full house also.

We are talking statistically according to your tracking software stats, not just the percentage that you assume that they hold up.

for me I consider aces to be a terrible hand to get. As many pros say... you will only win small pots or lose huge pots. Very rare occasion you will win large pots with them. Thats why I just bet them hard to take down the small and avoid the loses. I think I'm around 94% wins with them.

Small wins from this month with AA

well I have heard that too and I call BS!

AA has won more total and per/BB by far than any other hand as for percentages I play tourneys.

had AA 870 times won 90% and won 81% at showdown.

That's interesting... These were all about 70BB or more pots.. I don't really consider these small. And these were all this month already.

Nice strike rate, what is your name on Fulltilt WVHillbilly?

Thanks for the Take 2 heads-up one day to go and will have the $25 plus a small profit.

Might get some tips watching you on FT.:icon_sunn

A little over 80% of the time.

Had a reasonable run with aces on rush recently but wiped out half my profit on one hand.Big pot pre-flop so had to call, unfortunately stumbled.
