J7s

J7s (jack-seven suited) wins 52.4% of the time against a single random opponent, which places it 73th out of the 169 starting hands — the top 43.2% of the range. At a six-handed table (five opponents) its equity falls to 19.0% and its rank moves to 56; nine-handed (eight opponents) it holds 13.2% for rank 57. A suited hand — the flush adds a few points of raw equity.

Its suited/offsuit twin J7o runs at 49.7% (rank 92), a gap of 2.7 points. Sharing a suit is worth exactly those 2.7 points here — nothing about the ranks changes. The hand directly above it in the ranking is Q5s at 52.8%, and directly below is T8s at 52.3%, so three hands are packed into a band of 0.5 points.

Played heads-up against each of the other 168 hands, J7s is a favourite against 85 of them and an underdog against 83. Its best matchup is 72o at 76.4% and its worst is JJ at 13.7% — a spread of 62.7 points, which is why calling J7s simply "strong" or "weak" says very little. 2 opponents land inside one point of a coinflip, the closest being 33 at 50.2%.

J7s dominates 8 hands that share one of its ranks, pushing hardest against 72o at 76.4%. It is dominated by 8 hands in return, the worst of them QJs, which leaves J7s 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 35 of 78. The strongest hand in that group, AKs, is 14.8 points away, and the weakest, 32s, sits 16.5 points below. Measured against the average equity of all 169 hands, 51%, J7s lands +1.4 points from the middle of the pack, and 72 hands in the full ranking are still ahead of it.

Adding players costs equity steadily: 52.4% against one opponent, 35.6% against two, 22.3% against four and 13.2% against eight. That last figure is 119% of an even nine-way share (11.1%). The Chen formula scores this hand at 4 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 J7s reads as 52.4% 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.
