KJs (king-jack suited) wins 62.5% of the time against a single random opponent, which places it 20th out of the 169 starting hands — the top 11.8% of the range. At a six-handed table (five opponents) its equity falls to 27.1% and its rank moves to 11; nine-handed (eight opponents) it holds 19.0% for rank 11. A suited hand — the flush adds a few points of raw equity.

Its suited/offsuit twin KJo runs at 60.5% (rank 26), a gap of 2 points. Sharing a suit is worth exactly those 2 points here — nothing about the ranks changes. The hand directly above it in the ranking is ATo at 62.6%, and directly below is A8s at 61.9%, so three hands are packed into a band of 0.7 points.

Played heads-up against each of the other 168 hands, KJs is a favourite against 132 of them and an underdog against 36. Its best matchup is J2o at 77.7% and its worst is KK at 14.1% — a spread of 63.6 points, which is why calling KJs simply "strong" or "weak" says very little. 4 opponents land inside one point of a coinflip, the closest being 55 at 49.6%.

KJs dominates 8 hands that share one of its ranks, pushing hardest against J2o at 77.7%. It is dominated by 6 hands in return, the worst of them AJs, which leaves KJs with only 28.8%. 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 7 of 78. The strongest hand in that group, AKs, is 4.7 points away, and the weakest, 32s, sits 26.6 points below. Measured against the average equity of all 169 hands, 51%, KJs lands +11.5 points from the middle of the pack, and 19 hands in the full ranking are still ahead of it.

Adding players costs equity steadily: 62.5% against one opponent, 46.1% against two, 30.9% against four and 19.0% against eight. That last figure is 171% of an even nine-way share (11.1%). The Chen formula scores this hand at 9 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 KJs reads as 62.5% 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.
