A few risky hands against kings include pocket aces, pocket queens, and high pocket pairs like jacks and tens. Players holding these hands sometimes feel like they have a chance to win as their hole cards are high. But kings have an advantage. Players may also sometimes call a raise with lower pairs like sevens and eights or hope for a flush or straight. While these hands could win once in a while, kings stay the favorite against most starting hands. Players need to think carefully about the chances before calling a raise with any hand except for a strong pair or king. They should avoid high-risk plays against kings unless they have a pair of aces or kings themselves.
