A3s

A3s (ace-three suited) wins 58.2% of the time against a single random opponent, which places it 38th out of the 169 starting hands — the top 22.5% of the range. At a six-handed table (five opponents) its equity falls to 21.1% and its rank moves to 40; nine-handed (eight opponents) it holds 15.4% for rank 32. A suited ace — nut-flush potential on top of top-pair equity.

Its suited/offsuit twin A3o runs at 55.9% (rank 53), a gap of 2.3 points. Sharing a suit is worth exactly those 2.3 points here — nothing about the ranks changes. The hand directly above it in the ranking is K8s at 58.3%, and directly below is QJo at 58.0%, so three hands are packed into a band of 0.3 points.

Played heads-up against each of the other 168 hands, A3s is a favourite against 135 of them and an underdog against 33. Its best matchup is K3o at 77.0% and its worst is AA at 12.5% — a spread of 64.5 points, which is why calling A3s simply "strong" or "weak" says very little. 2 opponents land inside one point of a coinflip, the closest being A4o at 49.7%.

A3s dominates 8 hands that share one of its ranks, pushing hardest against K3o at 77.0%. It is dominated by 8 hands in return, the worst of them AKs, which leaves A3s with only 29.4%. 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 18 of 78. The strongest hand in that group, AKs, is 9 points away, and the weakest, 32s, sits 22.3 points below. Measured against the average equity of all 169 hands, 51%, A3s lands +7.2 points from the middle of the pack, and 37 hands in the full ranking are still ahead of it.

Adding players costs equity steadily: 58.2% against one opponent, 39.8% against two, 24.6% against four and 15.4% against eight. That last figure is 139% of an even nine-way share (11.1%). The Chen formula scores this hand at 7 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 A3s reads as 58.2% 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.
