My answer was that if someone was all-in, the jacks would be better, but if they each had chips left, which was the case here, the ace-queen suited was better.

How did this thread become so convoluted?

It's pretty clear to me that the original discussion at the table was intended as a simple discourse on implied odds.

The implication was that even though AQs is a slight dog preflop, it has implied odds if it flops a pair or ends up making a flush.

Unfortunately, all the experienced NL players say that the implied odds really reside with JJ because it can flop a set which is much more likely to be paid off.

The subsequent repeated redefining of the problem strikes me as bull****.
