73s

73s (seven-three suited) wins 40.1% of the time against a single random opponent, which places it 143th out of the 169 starting hands — the top 84.6% of the range. At a six-handed table (five opponents) its equity falls to 13.9% and its rank moves to 124; nine-handed (eight opponents) it holds 10.2% for rank 112. A suited hand — the flush adds a few points of raw equity.

Its suited/offsuit twin 73o runs at 36.6% (rank 160), a gap of 3.5 points. Sharing a suit is worth exactly those 3.5 points here — nothing about the ranks changes. The hand directly above it in the ranking is 82s at 40.3%, and directly below is 65o at 39.9%, so three hands are packed into a band of 0.4 points.

Played heads-up against each of the other 168 hands, 73s is a favourite against 23 of them and an underdog against 145. Its best matchup is 32o at 68.8% and its worst is 77 at 13.4% — a spread of 55.4 points, which is why calling 73s simply "strong" or "weak" says very little. 2 opponents land inside one point of a coinflip, the closest being 22 at 49.9%.

73s dominates 8 hands that share one of its ranks, pushing hardest against 32o at 68.8%. It is dominated by 8 hands in return, the worst of them A7s, which leaves 73s with only 27.9%. A single kicker can move the number by tens of points, and the full table below lists every one of those opponents.

Within the 78 suited hands it comes 70 of 78. The strongest hand in that group, AKs, is 27.1 points away, and the weakest, 32s, sits 4.2 points below. Measured against the average equity of all 169 hands, 51%, 73s lands -10.9 points from the middle of the pack, and 142 hands in the full ranking are still ahead of it.

Adding players costs equity steadily: 40.1% against one opponent, 26.5% against two, 16.7% against four and 10.2% against eight. That last figure is 92% of an even nine-way share (11.1%). The Chen formula scores this hand at 1.5 points, and it arrives 0.3% of the time (4 of 1,326 combinations).

One caveat worth repeating: every number on this page assumes the opponent holds a completely random hand and that the pot goes to showdown. Real opponents hold ranges, and a range that has already put money in is stronger than random — which is exactly why 73s reads as 40.1% here but plays worse than that against a raise. Use the 168 rows in the table below to see which specific holdings are the problem, rather than treating the headline figure as a verdict on the hand.
