I laughed out loud at this question.

All that I can add, of substance, is this: my favorite nickname for KK is Ace Magnets.

I'll take either at anytime, as much junk as I get dealt on the regular that never hits I'd be happy being dealt Aces or Kings and busting any tournament, send em both my way.

Obviously most players prefer AA over KK but I get the feeling that many feel less pain or disappointment when they lose with KK then when they lose with AA. So the question maybe what hand are you more disappointed in when you lose.

I prefer KK because AA already made me lose more than KK

I don't like getting either AA or KK as I always seem to get beat. Lately it is predictable that I will go out of the tournament right away when I get either of these hands.

Always AA. Don’t believe people who say they hate AA. How can you ... it’s the best hand. All depends on situation and when you get your money in.

A pair of aces always loses, I have seen cowboys win countless times. If you ask me I am taking cowboys over bullets every time. Capo1014

AA and KK are very good hands, you just need to play them correctly from the situation, read how to play such hands and I hope this will help you

AA of course. With KK the probability of an ace on the flop seems to increase to 1.0

I choose KK. It seems to me that this is a more profitable hand.

I love AK but of course KK is the stronger as it is a made hand. But if you chance on an ace on the flop AK is so good.

First off ....AK against KK is a no brainer. Reduces AK to a virtual three outer. So for that reason, deal me KK.

I don't think it is even a question... KK is always on the front... Pre flop

I prefer AA. =D In general, you need to be able to play with any card. Many players have a favorite card, no matter which one. But it shouldn't be.
