# KcQh — king-queen offsuit

**Open-raise from every position.** KcQh ranks 23 of the 169 distinct starting hands
(top 11.2%). Against one random hand it wins
60.45% of showdowns and takes 61.49% of the pot.

## What this hand is

King-queen offsuit. Before any board card is dealt its odds are identical to
KcQd, KcQs, KdQc, KdQh, KdQs, KhQc, KhQd, KhQs, KsQc, KsQd, KsQh — suits are interchangeable pre-flop, so all
12 combinations in class KQo 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 | 60.45 | 2.09 | 61.49 |
| 2 | 43.25 | 2.27 | 44.29 |
| 3 | 34.23 | 2.30 | 35.27 |
| 4 | 28.35 | 2.28 | 29.36 |
| 5 | 24.02 | 2.24 | 25.03 |
| 6 | 20.76 | 2.24 | 21.77 |
| 7 | 18.08 | 2.22 | 19.09 |

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 | 12.88 | 12.68 | 0.41 | 6 |
| KK | 8.70 | 8.09 | 1.22 | 3 |
| QQ | 31.46 | 30.86 | 1.20 | 3 |
| JJ | 43.54 | 43.33 | 0.41 | 6 |
| TT | 43.51 | 43.31 | 0.40 | 6 |
| 77 | 46.29 | 46.08 | 0.42 | 6 |
| 22 | 48.82 | 48.38 | 0.90 | 6 |
| AKs | 24.41 | 23.83 | 1.15 | 3 |
| AKo | 25.23 | 24.65 | 1.16 | 9 |
| AQs | 24.42 | 23.85 | 1.13 | 3 |
| JTs | 60.92 | 60.58 | 0.69 | 4 |
| 76s | 59.22 | 58.90 | 0.63 | 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.
