how is AK vs 88;

Hand 0: 44.839% 44.65% 00.19% 55048032 231570.00 { AKo }
Hand 1: 55.161% 54.97% 00.19% 67774716 231570.00 { 88 }

?? isnt the chances of hitting 6(times to for percentage) outs times 5 cards to hit 60%?
flop1 = 12%
flop2 = 12%
flop3 = 12%
turn = 12%
river = 12%

but isnt it more than 60% due less cards in the deck when each card comes which will result is higher chance of hitting your AK on each street?

Is it you have to add all them up together and take away the outs for 88?
Sorry if this is basic and dumb haha

totally different question
oh and at 5nl or 10nl would you 4bet shove to 3bet or 5bet shove with AKs? (against a reg 20/18/2?)

You're not accounting for the fact that an 8 can come which means that a single A or K wouldn't matter in the hand. If there were no other 8's in the deck I think you're closer to correct, but accounting for the possibility that one of the two remaining 8's can come is what changes the percentages.

Not to go all permutations and combinations, but there is no easy answer to your question.

Yes the chance of an A or K or an 8 coming increases at every street due to card reduction.

But also you have to figure in 4 flush boards, str8s, FH's, etc etc etc.

Just trust that The Stove is right.
