Re: AK vs. JJ
Give me JJ all day. Some of the biggest pots I've ever won playind NL were with a set of jacks or jacks full of aces. Ak is usually paying me off in that spot. Dont get me wrong, Slick is awesome, JJ is just a little bit better.

Re: AK vs. JJ
AK is a much better hand in my opinion especially when it is suited. The only way to improve your hand in the case of JJ is to get trips or 4 to a flush or if the flop is three of a kind or something that the odds are against you. The only time I would rather have JJ over AK is if its short handed or even heads up because its a slight favourite before the flop. AK will pair 2/3's of the time plus its more likely to improve once you get it. 2 pair, straights and flushes will come more likely.

Re: AK vs. JJ
You are a 50% winner either way....There are too many factors involved to say one hand or the other is better...Sure JJ is a good hand, but if another player has QQ you are screwed...With AK you have four outs compared to two....AK has a possible straight and flush draws....The jacks only have 2 outs period. You shouldn't play hands before they are dealt in my opinion.

Re: AK vs. JJ
I'd rather take JJ, everytime. Even if you flop some overcards, you may have a straight draw oryou will always have 2 outs to a set. Besides, JJ is AT WORST dead even with AK, but more often it's a slight favorite.

That is why AK is always ranked over JJ for a starting hand...To be honest this is pointless anyway....It isn't like you get to pick your starting hand. AK or JJ can be beat by 7 2os with the right flop. Like I said before...One should never play thier cards before they are dealt. |

Re: AK vs. JJ
Well Said. Forget PPLTPs. If you can play limit hold em at all, its only value is the breif memior interludes.

Phil makes so much money on royalties and endorsments these days that medium stakes poker doesn't make much difference to him. He's getting paid to play it.

Re: AK vs. JJ
Mostly true, but when you raise of call a raise with AK, and you hit your hand, most people will be aware of the strng possibility that you hold TPTK. Same is even true when you make a broadway or a wheel. When you flop a set of jacks, It is almost always a suprise for your opponent at the showdown. AK easier to play, JJ more profitable in any cashgame.
