66 against KTo: the numbers
| Hand | Wins | Ties | Loses | Equity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 66 | 52.915 | 0.452 | 46.633 | 53.141 |

Here a pocket pair (66) meets an offsuit hand (KTo). One hand holds a pair and the other holds two cards that both outrank it, which keeps the equity closer than most people expect.
That is a slim edge: neither hand is far ahead. The tie share is 0.45%: on those boards the pot is chopped and neither hand wins outright.
Among the 169 starting hands, 66 is number 17 and KTo is number 33 by strength against a random hand.
