The strongest card in the pack.

It can be played aggressively, as it will dominate all other hands which include one ace.

Preflop examples (Ace of rubies = A)

Aq off vs ak off 62%

A7 off vs ak off 56%

Running into pocket pairs is far from ideal, yet not disastrous

Aq off vs kk 36% AQ suited vs kk 40%

Pocket Aces including the Ruby Ace is the best starting hand.

Aa vs Kk 72%

And the dream scenario and the ultimate cooler:

Aa vs aa 95%
