# Ac4s — ace-four offsuit

**Open-raise from button; fold it elsewhere.** Ac4s ranks 49 of the 169 distinct starting hands
(top 24.9%). Against one random hand it wins
54.60% of showdowns and takes 56.61% of the pot.

## What this hand is

Ace-four offsuit. Before any board card is dealt its odds are identical to
Ac4d, Ac4h, Ad4c, Ad4h, Ad4s, Ah4c, Ah4d, Ah4s, As4c, As4d, As4h — suits are interchangeable pre-flop, so all
12 combinations in class A4o 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 | 54.60 | 4.02 | 56.61 |
| 2 | 34.98 | 4.32 | 37.05 |
| 3 | 25.23 | 4.15 | 27.18 |

| 7 | 11.05 | 3.46 | 12.63 |

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 | 7.66 | 6.99 | 1.35 | 3 |
| KK | 29.45 | 29.23 | 0.44 | 6 |
| QQ | 29.40 | 29.19 | 0.42 | 6 |
| JJ | 29.42 | 29.22 | 0.41 | 6 |
| TT | 29.52 | 29.32 | 0.39 | 6 |
| 77 | 30.57 | 30.36 | 0.42 | 6 |
| 22 | 47.21 | 46.88 | 0.66 | 6 |
| AKs | 25.68 | 23.38 | 4.59 | 3 |
| AKo | 26.92 | 24.51 | 4.82 | 9 |
| AQs | 26.20 | 23.34 | 5.72 | 3 |
| JTs | 51.61 | 51.37 | 0.47 | 4 |
| 76s | 52.71 | 52.47 | 0.48 | 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.
