AA, KK, AKs

Why AKs but not QQ?

I probably do it with QQ, also. But I think his range is more heavily weighted towards better hands, of which KK is one of them. If we have QQ, we're a 20/80 dog to KK, but AKs is only like a 2:1 dog.

Ah yes, but QQ is much better vs. AA than AK is vs. AA, which balances out AK being better again KK than QQ against KK:

Pre-flop

Wins Ties Equity
79.83% 0.54% 80.36% ( AA,KK )
19.10% 0.54% 19.64% ( AK )

Pre-flop

Wins Ties Equity
81.52% 0.22% 81.74% ( AA,KK )
18.03% 0.22% 18.26% ( QQ )

Edit: And QQ is much better against the lower end of his range, so if you're calling with AK you should definitely be calling with QQ.

I reckon he's got AJ+ here and is losing the plot a bit.
I call with QQ+ AK+.
