A7o

A7o (ace-seven offsuit) wins 58.7% of the time against a single random opponent, which places it 36th out of the 169 starting hands — the top 21.3% of the range. At a six-handed table (five opponents) its equity falls to 18.3% and its rank moves to 66; nine-handed (eight opponents) it holds 11.3% for rank 90. An ace-high hand — watch out for kicker trouble and domination.

Its suited/offsuit twin A7s runs at 60.9% (rank 24), a gap of 2.2 points. Losing the shared suit costs 2.2 points of raw equity. The hand directly above it in the ranking is A4s at 59.0%, and directly below is K8s at 58.3%, so three hands are packed into a band of 0.7 points.

Played heads-up against each of the other 168 hands, A7o is a favourite against 142 of them and an underdog against 26. Its best matchup is 72o at 77.2% and its worst is AA at 6.7% — a spread of 70.5 points, which is why calling A7o simply "strong" or "weak" says very little.

A7o dominates 8 hands that share one of its ranks, pushing hardest against 72o at 77.2%. It is dominated by 8 hands in return, the worst of them AKs, which leaves A7o with only 25.1%. 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 offsuit hands it comes 10 of 78. The strongest hand in that group, AKo, is 6.7 points away, and the weakest, 32o, sits 26.4 points below. Measured against the average equity of all 169 hands, 51%, A7o lands +7.7 points from the middle of the pack, and 35 hands in the full ranking are still ahead of it.

Adding players costs equity steadily: 58.7% against one opponent, 39.2% against two, 22.6% against four and 11.3% against eight. That last figure is 102% of an even nine-way share (11.1%). The Chen formula scores this hand at 5 points, and it arrives 0.9% of the time (12 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 A7o reads as 58.7% 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.
