For me, both pairs of cards represent the same value. Closer to the prizes when someone throws all-in in front of me, I throw them both away.

Hi the all! I think, and my personal playing experience shows, that AT more often win,
than KQ... And in general, any A with any second card often more older any two cards,
wich more low A. Cause is only one: A - the highest card in the deck. But this is only
my opinion and playing experience...:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

I feel more comfortable playing with AT, KQ I feel very exposed. I prefer to develop the post flop game more with this hand, and use my control tactics more.

With short stack AT is definitely better. With deep stack KQ is closer to AJ. For deep stacks AT is sick hand and often will be dominated by other As.

They both lose to a set of 6s post flop. I wouldn't be too proud of either. Good luck.

Im with KQ here based on experience. But i might call with AT on the BB when everyone folds to the button witha short stack.

I think they are similar in that they are both decent starting hands, but can get you into trouble if not played properly.

A10 is better than KQ preflop, but for postflop play KQs might be better some times

Both options are equally good and bad. It all depends on the situation.

Technically A10 is the better hand. It's stronger preflop and if nothing hits the flop on a raise pre, then it is possible to bluff the KQ off the hand.

59% with AT vs 41% with KQ and math is almost everything in online poker. So the choice is obvious to me :)
P.S. Well, against random 1 opponent both hands have similar value but Ace is preferable always for me.

I feel with A10 you will often be beaten by a higher Ax hand.
So I prefer QK, but I don't play either of them that often.

I'd take the KQ over the AT just because it puts my odds at getting a straight even higher. Though all it takes is to have an A on the flop and all of a sudden that AT becomes a really powerful hand. Though the same can be said for any hand with an Ace.
