Default Re: Do u win moore with AKs than AKo?

[ QUOTE ]
They are basically the same hand. You aren't getting paid off with your flush because you need Qxs to call your pre-flop bet and hit the flush. How often is that going to happen?

[/ QUOTE ]

I don't think the major strength of AKs comes from actually hitting flushes (although it helps). I think it picks up a lot of strength because having TPTK with a flush or back-door flush possiblity puts you in situations where you can play your hand more aggresively to pick up pots, but not lose as much value when you are called.
