having figured out the numbers, it's much closer than i thought.

initially I thought: you are much more of a dog vs AA than you are favourite over AK, and since you hold KK, a bunch of the AK's arent possible - so you must be quite an underdog vs that range. So: easy fold.

I didnt inmediately take into account that there are still more combinations possible of A and K than of A and A, which makes this problem more complex, and the result closer.

still, it is a fold, but it is indeed close

KK vs AK is 68%, not 75%.

16, but the half the K's are gone, so 8.

I was wrong. Your probability of winning is only 47%
