T8s

T8s (ten-eight suited) wins 52.3% of the time against a single random opponent, which places it 74th out of the 169 starting hands — the top 43.8% of the range. At a six-handed table (five opponents) its equity falls to 20.4% and its rank moves to 46; nine-handed (eight opponents) it holds 14.7% for rank 37. A suited hand — the flush adds a few points of raw equity.

Its suited/offsuit twin T8o runs at 49.8% (rank 91), a gap of 2.5 points. Sharing a suit is worth exactly those 2.5 points here — nothing about the ranks changes. The hand directly above it in the ranking is J7s at 52.4%, and directly below is K4o at 52.2%, so three hands are packed into a band of 0.2 points.

Played heads-up against each of the other 168 hands, T8s is a favourite against 73 of them and an underdog against 95. Its best matchup is 82o at 75.7% and its worst is TT at 16.5% — a spread of 59.2 points, which is why calling T8s simply "strong" or "weak" says very little. 1 opponents land inside one point of a coinflip, the closest being 66 at 49.4%.

T8s dominates 8 hands that share one of its ranks, pushing hardest against 82o at 75.7%. It is dominated by 8 hands in return, the worst of them KTs, which leaves T8s with only 30.0%. 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 36 of 78. The strongest hand in that group, AKs, is 14.9 points away, and the weakest, 32s, sits 16.4 points below. Measured against the average equity of all 169 hands, 51%, T8s lands +1.3 points from the middle of the pack, and 73 hands in the full ranking are still ahead of it.

Adding players costs equity steadily: 52.3% against one opponent, 36.5% against two, 23.9% against four and 14.7% against eight. That last figure is 132% 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 T8s reads as 52.3% 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.
