JTo

JTo (jack-ten offsuit) wins 55.3% of the time against a single random opponent, which places it 57th out of the 169 starting hands — the top 33.7% of the range. At a six-handed table (five opponents) its equity falls to 21.6% and its rank moves to 36; nine-handed (eight opponents) it holds 14.5% for rank 41. A connector — straight potential, but nothing else to lean on.

Its suited/offsuit twin JTs runs at 57.5% (rank 46), 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 Q9o at 55.4%, and directly below is K7o at 55.3%, so three hands are packed into a band of 0.1 points.

Played heads-up against each of the other 168 hands, JTo is a favourite against 91 of them and an underdog against 77. Its best matchup is T2o at 76.2% and its worst is JJ at 13.0% — a spread of 63.2 points, which is why calling JTo simply "strong" or "weak" says very little. 3 opponents land inside one point of a coinflip, the closest being 55 at 50.0%.

JTo dominates 8 hands that share one of its ranks, pushing hardest against T2o at 76.2%. It is dominated by 8 hands in return, the worst of them QJs, which leaves JTo with only 25.7%. 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 20 of 78. The strongest hand in that group, AKo, is 10.1 points away, and the weakest, 32o, sits 23 points below. Measured against the average equity of all 169 hands, 51%, JTo lands +4.3 points from the middle of the pack, and 56 hands in the full ranking are still ahead of it.

Adding players costs equity steadily: 55.3% against one opponent, 39.1% against two, 25.2% against four and 14.5% against eight. That last figure is 131% of an even nine-way share (11.1%). The Chen formula scores this hand at 7 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 JTo reads as 55.3% 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.
