# 5c4d — five-four offsuit

**Fold from every position when the pot is unopened.** 5c4d ranks 153 of the 169 distinct starting hands
(top 89.1%). Against one random hand it wins
35.07% of showdowns and takes 38.12% of the pot.

## What this hand is

Five-four offsuit. Before any board card is dealt its odds are identical to
5c4h, 5c4s, 5d4c, 5d4h, 5d4s, 5h4c, 5h4d, 5h4s, 5s4c, 5s4d, 5s4h — suits are interchangeable pre-flop, so all
12 combinations in class 54o share the numbers below.
That stops being true the moment the board has suits, which is what the paid
record covers.

## Equity against random opponents

Monte Carlo, 400,000 trials per row, seed 1 —
same seed, same digits. "Pot equity" counts outright wins plus a share of split
pots, which is the number to compare against pot odds.

## Head-to-head, exact

Against the opponent's whole hand class, not one chosen pair of cards: every
combination of it you do not block, each enumerated over all 1,712,304
boards. No sampling. "Combos" is how many were averaged.

| Against | Hero pot equity % | Hero win % | Split % | Combos |
| ------- | ----------------- | ---------- | ------- | ------ |
| AA | 17.19 | 16.96 | 0.44 | 6 |
| KK | 18.71 | 18.49 | 0.45 | 6 |
| QQ | 18.70 | 18.49 | 0.43 | 6 |
| JJ | 18.71 | 18.49 | 0.44 | 6 |
| TT | 18.30 | 18.04 | 0.52 | 6 |
| 77 | 16.17 | 15.48 | 1.39 | 6 |
| 22 | 48.92 | 47.10 | 3.64 | 6 |
| AKs | 35.84 | 35.58 | 0.53 | 4 |
| AKo | 37.65 | 37.40 | 0.51 | 12 |
| AQs | 35.76 | 35.50 | 0.52 | 4 |
| JTs | 34.37 | 33.77 | 1.18 | 4 |
| 76s | 35.25 | 31.61 | 7.28 | 4 |

Averaging matters here. Against a single representative the answer shifts with
the suits — J♣T♣ takes 17.77% against Q♣Q♦ but 18.89% against Q♠Q♦, because the
shared club both blocks a flush and removes cards. Averaged over the class the
figure is the same whichever suits you hold, which is what makes it quotable.

## What this page cannot tell you

Pre-flop equity is not a strategy. It ignores stack depth, bet sizing, and how
your opponents actually play. The verdict above is a conventional opening chart,
not solver output. Equity against a random hand is also not equity against a
range: an opponent who raises has better than random cards, and this page does
not model that.
