What do you prefer to have in your hand? AT or KQ?

[No1eJoker]

A,10 of course !
poker odds Calculator: odds of A,10 winning is 57%,
odds of K,Q winning is 43%.

KQ is better in a full game or with more players in the pot. AT would be better for a small table or first to enter from late position.

 

[vitalicharniak]

It all depends on the situation and no problems

 

[ScottieDuncan]

KQ for me the K is a better hole card than the A

 

[Yoo]

AT for me and i pray the other to have KQs and flop to be KQJ) 8 turn 2 R))))

 

[Dailon Arroyo Blandon]

According to experts KQ is a stronger hand than AT ..... I like to play more with KQ, of course this is that we should always consider our stock of chips and our position on the table before making the bet if we have a good stack of chips and we are in a good position at the table, then we can have a higher percentage of odds to win the hand ...

 

[bigjay2007]

If you look at the percentages, A 10 would be the best hand. I just tend to play KQ a lot, because its connected and seems that I hit on the flop. Got to be careful because if you may be up against AQ or AK and lose with the lower kicker

 

[Rodrigonog]

Usually I have better results with KQ. But AT is also a good hand

 

[rehanov]

in a multi way pot i dont like ace 10 , bad kicker i prefer kq

 

[Killmitch]

I prefer A 10 in position

 

[VovanBaron]

It depends on your strategy and your opponents.these hands have equal values but a10 is little bit better.

 

[David macdonald]

Doesn't matter to me I play them both when I think I'm good

 

[Alphamuddle]

I don't really like any of them, KQ seems just too weak to go all in with it. I guess if I had to choose I would pick AT.

 

[GRANDPAPA929]

Both combinations are good, but I prefer to hold in my hands is:

 

[Bodomovac]

A10 of course. It's the stronger hand than KQ, but still it depends on the flop, turn and river cards.

 

[Navin Sarabjeet]

KQ for me , i find that AT is a very weak hand, because you are often dominated by better Aces. And those two face-cards tend to be more helpful when an ace comes on the flop, because i can fold it faster.

How did you know?
A few examples:

 

[nielrp]

A 10

 

[iwont20]

depends on what you intend of doing.

 

[rari458]

I personally prefer KQ, but only by a small bit. People tend to get spooked in the tournaments I play when an Ace hits the board. KQ is a bit more sneaky in my opinion.

 

[TeUnit]

AT is your classical reverse implied odds hand, and its difficult to play post flop, ie what do you want to hit on the flop an Ace? a Ten?

Even when you hit the miracle straight its difficult to get paid.

The other way to look at it is, with and without seeing a flop, with AT you can jam and you have blocker and then you dont have to worry about the postflop difficulty. So I rather jam AT and rather raise fold QK.

 

[Mcash2]

Both are medium strength and easily dominated. 6max UTG I prefer KQ over AT. Everyone plays Ax and I find AT hard to tell where I'm at post flop.

 

[PKRNRS]

theyre both equal. I almost will say KQ.

 

[freestocks]

A,10 is the better hand. I prefer to push with the better hand (and get lucky with the worst).

 

[HennieP]

Why would you want to be all-in with either AT or KQ? They're both inferior hands and if anything should try to see a flop as cheap as possible in late position or not at all. The only worthwhile exception would be if you're in a tournament and have less than 13BB left. Then a shove from mid or late position might win you some much needed chips. If I get called though I wouldn't hold much hope that I'm getting out alive.
