# Jc5s — jack-five offsuit

**Fold from every position when the pot is unopened.** Jc5s ranks 106 of the 169 distinct starting hands
(top 60.2%). Against one random hand it wins
44.80% of showdowns and takes 47.06% of the pot.

## What this hand is

Jack-five offsuit. Before any board card is dealt its odds are identical to
Jc5d, Jc5h, Jd5c, Jd5h, Jd5s, Jh5c, Jh5d, Jh5s, Js5c, Js5d, Js5h — suits are interchangeable pre-flop, so all
12 combinations in class J5o 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 | 44.80 | 4.53 | 47.06 |
| 2 | 27.23 | 4.00 | 29.08 |
| 3 | 19.09 | 3.59 | 20.72 |
| 4 | 14.36 | 3.36 | 15.88 |
| 5 | 11.33 | 3.21 | 12.77 |
| 6 | 9.16 | 3.14 | 10.57 |
| 7 | 7.61 | 3.05 | 8.97 |

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 | 12.90 | 12.71 | 0.38 | 6 |
| KK | 12.91 | 12.71 | 0.40 | 6 |
| QQ | 12.61 | 12.42 | 0.39 | 6 |
| JJ | 7.27 | 5.96 | 2.61 | 3 |
| TT | 27.66 | 27.45 | 0.43 | 6 |
| 77 | 29.87 | 29.52 | 0.70 | 6 |
| 22 | 47.34 | 46.57 | 1.54 | 6 |
| AKs | 31.17 | 30.93 | 0.48 | 4 |
| AKo | 32.70 | 32.47 | 0.46 | 12 |
| AQs | 30.88 | 30.65 | 0.47 | 4 |
| JTs | 26.67 | 21.42 | 10.50 | 3 |
| 76s | 53.44 | 52.78 | 1.32 | 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.
