Against one random hand it wins 47.79% of showdowns and takes 49.97% of the pot. ## What this hand is Queen-five offsuit. Before any board card is dealt its odds are identical to Qc5d, Qc5h, Qc5s, Qd5c, Qd5s, Qh5c, Qh5d, Qh5s, Qs5c, Qs5d, Qs5h — suits are interchangeable pre-flop, so all 12 combinations in class Q5o 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 | 47.79 | 4.36 | 49.97 | | 2 | 29.30 | 4.12 | 31.23 | | 3 | 20.66 | 3.72 | 22.36 | | 4 | 15.57 | 3.43 | 17.13 | | 5 | 12.45 | 3.30 | 13.94 | | 6 | 10.14 | 3.12 | 11.55 | | 7 | 8.44 | 3.04 | 9.81 | 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 | 12.46 | 12.27 | 0.40 | 6 | | KK | 12.47 | 12.27 | 0.41 | 6 | | QQ | 6.96 | 5.96 | 1.99 | 3 | | JJ | 28.10 | 27.90 | 0.40 | 6 | | TT | 27.79 | 27.58 | 0.41 | 6 | | 77 | 30.04 | 29.73 | 0.60 | 6 | | 22 | 47.15 | 46.53 | 1.24 | 6 | | AKs | 30.85 | 30.60 | 0.49 | 4 | | AKo | 32.35 | 32.11 | 0.47 | 12 | | AQs | 23.16 | 22.33 | 1.65 | 3 | | JTs | 51.18 | 50.72 | 0.93 | 4 | | 76s | 53.30 | 52.84 | 0.93 | 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/Qd5h $0.01 USDC (x402) ## Related - Suit-equivalents: [Qc5d](Qc5d.md) · [Qc5h](Qc5h.md) · [Qc5s](Qc5s.md) · [Qd5c](Qd5c.md) · [Qd5s](Qd5s.md) · [Qh5c](Qh5c.md) · [Qh5d](Qh5d.md) · [Qh5s](Qh5s.md) · [Qs5c](Qs5c.md) · [Qs5d](Qs5d.md) · [Qs5h](Qs5h.md) - All 1,326 hands: [index](index.md) - URL convention: `/hands/.md`, higher rank first, suits ordered c, d, h, s.
