Other risky hands against aces include pocket Kings, pocket Queens, and high pocket pairs like Jacks and Tens. Players with these hands may feel confident in their chances due to the high cards. However, aces have the advantage once the flop comes. Players with lower pairs like sevens and eights also occasionally call a raise with aces, hoping for a lucky third pair or flush. While these hands could win in some situations, aces remain a heavy favorite against most other starting hands. Players should carefully consider the odds before calling a raise with any hand other than a strong pair or ace.
