Against one random hand it wins 64.46% of showdowns and takes 65.32% of the pot. ## What this hand is Ace-king offsuit. Before any board card is dealt its odds are identical to AcKd, AcKh, AcKs, AdKc, AdKh, AdKs, AhKc, AhKd, AhKs, AsKd, AsKh — suits are interchangeable pre-flop, so all 12 combinations in class AKo 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 | 64.46 | 1.71 | 65.32 | | 2 | 47.21 | 2.01 | 48.14 | | 3 | 37.67 | 2.02 | 38.58 | | 4 | 31.43 | 2.12 | 32.38 | | 5 | 26.95 | 2.05 | 27.87 | | 6 | 23.49 | 2.04 | 24.41 | | 7 | 20.65 | 2.01 | 21.55 | 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 | 6.83 | 6.17 | 1.32 | 3 | | KK | 30.12 | 29.70 | 0.85 | 3 | | QQ | 43.24 | 43.03 | 0.42 | 6 | | JJ | 43.15 | 42.95 | 0.41 | 6 | | TT | 43.12 | 42.93 | 0.39 | 6 | | 77 | 45.02 | 44.84 | 0.36 | 6 | | 22 | 47.35 | 47.04 | 0.62 | 6 | | AKs | 47.51 | 2.17 | 90.67 | 2 | | AKo | 50.00 | 1.56 | 96.88 | 7 | | AQs | 70.12 | 67.90 | 4.44 | 3 | | JTs | 59.49 | 59.25 | 0.46 | 4 | | 76s | 58.43 | 58.22 | 0.42 | 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. ## 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/AsKc $0.01 USDC (x402) ## Related - Suit-equivalents: [AcKd](AcKd.md) · [AcKh](AcKh.md) · [AcKs](AcKs.md) · [AdKc](AdKc.md) · [AdKh](AdKh.md) · [AdKs](AdKs.md) · [AhKc](AhKc.md) · [AhKd](AhKd.md) · [AhKs](AhKs.md) · [AsKd](AsKd.md) · [AsKh](AsKh.md) - All 1,326 hands: [index](index.md) - URL convention: `/hands/.md`, higher rank first, suits ordered c, d, h, s.
