# 6d5s — six-five offsuit

**Fold from every position when the pot is unopened.** 6d5s ranks 145 of the 169 distinct starting hands
(top 83.7%). Against one random hand it wins
36.89% of showdowns and takes 39.80% of the pot.

## What this hand is

Six-five offsuit. Before any board card is dealt its odds are identical to
6c5d, 6c5h, 6c5s, 6d5c, 6d5h, 6h5c, 6h5d, 6h5s, 6s5c, 6s5d, 6s5h — suits are interchangeable pre-flop, so all
12 combinations in class 65o 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 | 18.69 | 18.49 | 0.40 | 6 |
| KK | 18.69 | 18.49 | 0.38 | 6 |
| QQ | 18.68 | 18.49 | 0.37 | 6 |
| JJ | 18.25 | 18.05 | 0.40 | 6 |
| TT | 17.95 | 17.71 | 0.48 | 6 |
| 77 | 14.64 | 13.97 | 1.34 | 6 |
| 22 | 49.68 | 48.07 | 3.22 | 6 |
| AKs | 36.08 | 35.85 | 0.47 | 4 |
| AKo | 37.97 | 37.74 | 0.45 | 12 |
| AQs | 36.00 | 35.77 | 0.46 | 4 |
| JTs | 32.87 | 32.29 | 1.15 | 4 |
| 76s | 31.88 | 22.97 | 17.82 | 3 |

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.
