You poor, poor little sheep fellow. I cannot argue the statistics of AA being the prime hand in poker. However, I can easily argue that strategically, and in teh case of value, AK is a much superior hand. Since you are so fond of quotes...

Doyle Brunson's Super System 2 , page 582, paragraph 1:

"A-K vs A-A or K-K. Ive already mentioned that I'd rather ahve A-K than either a pair of aces or a pair of kings."

Id suggest your reading that section of the book, very valuable. Hell, who knows, there may be something you dont think you already know in there!
