Against one random hand it wins 42.75% of showdowns and takes 45.08% of the pot. ## What this hand is Eight-seven offsuit. Before any board card is dealt its odds are identical to 8c7d, 8c7h, 8c7s, 8d7c, 8d7h, 8h7c, 8h7d, 8h7s, 8s7c, 8s7d, 8s7h — suits are interchangeable pre-flop, so all 12 combinations in class 87o 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 | Opponents | Win % | Tie % | Pot equity % | | --------- | ----- | ----- | ------------ | | 1 | 42.75 | 4.65 | 45.08 | | 2 | 28.75 | 3.48 | 30.30 | | 3 | 21.73 | 3.07 | 23.09 | | 4 | 17.06 | 2.88 | 18.35 | | 5 | 14.13 | 2.69 | 15.33 | | 6 | 11.86 | 2.63 | 13.04 | | 7 | 10.26 | 2.48 | 11.37 | 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 | 18.66 | 18.50 | 0.31 | 6 | | KK | 18.22 | 18.06 | 0.34 | 6 | | QQ | 17.89 | 17.72 | 0.34 | 6 | | JJ | 17.10 | 16.92 | 0.36 | 6 | | TT | 15.71 | 15.49 | 0.44 | 6 | | 77 | 35.70 | 34.46 | 2.48 | 3 | | 22 | 51.13 | 49.91 | 2.45 | 6 | | AKs | 35.76 | 35.55 | 0.41 | 4 | | AKo | 37.61 | 37.42 | 0.39 | 12 | | AQs | 35.44 | 35.23 | 0.42 | 4 | | JTs | 33.25 | 32.69 | 1.12 | 4 | | 76s | 65.48 | 59.01 | 12.95 | 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. ## The full record Equity against modelled ranges (top 5/10/20/40%), position-by-position guidance, and the suit-specific analysis for this exact combination: GET https://poketpoker.com/api/hands/8d7s $0.01 USDC (x402) ## Related - Suit-equivalents: [8c7d](8c7d.md) · [8c7h](8c7h.md) · [8c7s](8c7s.md) · [8d7c](8d7c.md) · [8d7h](8d7h.md) · [8h7c](8h7c.md) · [8h7d](8h7d.md) · [8h7s](8h7s.md) · [8s7c](8s7c.md) · [8s7d](8s7d.md) · [8s7h](8s7h.md) - All 1,326 hands: [index](index.md) - URL convention: `/hands/.md`, higher rank first, suits ordered c, d, h, s.
