WinPoker and Frugal.

All 3 sources show the same values associated with each of these holds, with the unsuited AK being the lowest valued hold. However, WP and Frugal rank the AK above the lone card holds.

The actual lone K or lone A hold values when both A & K are present in the hand are actually lower than the general case values in the chart (fewer straight possibilities). WinPoker and Frugal are intelligent enough to tweak the strategy order to reflect this. vpgenius ranks strictly on the based of general "Avg Values", without this additional consideration.
