What are the odds of running into AA when you have KK for 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10-handed game? Anyone know these numbers?

It's about 0.4% times the number of opponents in the hand.

But why it matters is beyond me, If you're gonna start pegging people for As every time you hit kings then you might as well quit before you're behind.
Operation: 50 SNG's $1+0.10
Aim: +ve ROI

Fail: Repeat and improve
Succeed: 50 SNG's $2+0.20 & improve on previous ROI

Time: Open

Currently
Played: 17
ITM: 47.1%
ROI: 15.5%

I hope this is correct

Odds of any given player having AA whilst you hold KK is 4/50 * 3/49 = 0.0049 or 0.49% (about 1 in 200)

Now the odds of anyone having AA is 1 - the odds that everyone missed AA. At a 10 seat table that would be .....

1 - (0.995*0.995*0.995*0.995*0.995*0.995*0.995*0.995*0 .995) = 0.0432 or 4.32%

So any time you were not dealt an A, at a full table someone will have AA aproximately 1 in every 23 hands.
