Before any board card is dealt, AA holds 88.03% equity against A7s, which leaves A7s with 11.97%. ## AA against A7s: the numbers **Exact preflop results for AA against A7s, in percent** | Hand | Wins | Ties | Loses | Equity | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | AA | 87.383 | 1.303 | 11.314 | 88.034 | | A7s | 11.314 | 1.303 | 87.383 | 11.966 | AA and A7s are a pocket pair and a suited hand, in that order. The pair already holds one of the other hand's ranks, and that overlap cuts down the cards the other hand can pair with. This is one of the lopsided matchups: A7s wins only 11.32% of the boards outright. Of every 100 boards, about 1.30 are split pots, and the equity figures already include them. For context, AA sits at number 1 of 169 starting hands and A7s at number 24 when each is run against a random hand. **Boards behind the percentages: 20,547,648 counted in all** | Hand | Boards won, about | Boards tied, about | Boards lost, about | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | AA | 17,955,000 | 268,000 | 2,325,000 | | A7s | 2,325,000 | 268,000 | 17,955,000 | Exact total: 12 deals times 1,712,304 boards. The other three counts come from the five-decimal percentages and are rounded to the nearest thousand, so read them as approximate. **AA against A7s read as odds** | Hand | Equity as odds (to 1) | Wins one deal in | Loses one deal in | Pot odds needed to call (to 1) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | AA | 7.357 | 1.144 | 8.839 | 0.136 | | A7s | 0.136 | 8.839 | 1.144 | 7.357 | The last column is the break-even price: the pot odds a call needs to offer, as a ratio of pot to call. ## Who is ahead on which flops Split by what the flop looks like, AA peaks at 92.89% on rainbow flops topped by a ten or better and bottoms out at 77.76% on monotone flops. AA stays ahead on all five textures, but the swing between them is large, so how the flop looks matters a great deal. **AA against A7s by flop texture, in percent** | Flop | Share of flops | AA wins | Ties | A7s wins | AA equity | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Rainbow, ten or higher | 23.740 | 92.266 | 1.242 | 6.492 | 92.887 | | Rainbow, nine or lower | 7.042 | 86.031 | 2.494 | 11.475 | 87.278 | | Two-tone | 46.236 | 85.877 | 1.372 | 12.751 | 86.563 | | Monotone | 5.151 | 76.583 | 2.351 | 21.066 | 77.759 | | Paired | 17.831 | 88.441 | 0.430 | 11.129 | 88.656 | Flop types: rainbow means three different suits, two-tone means one suit twice, monotone means one suit three times, paired means a repeated rank. ## Compared with a random hand Start from the random-hand figures, 85.20% for AA and 60.98% for A7s. This opponent changes them by +2.83 and -49.01 points. **AA and A7s here compared with each against a random hand, in percent** | Case | Equity here | Against a random hand | Change in points | Times the random-hand equity | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | AA, all flops | 88.034 | 85.204 | +2.830 | 1.03321 | | AA, rainbow, ten or higher | 92.887 | 85.204 | +7.683 | 1.09017 | | AA, rainbow, nine or lower | 87.278 | 85.204 | +2.074 | 1.02434 | | AA, two-tone | 86.563 | 85.204 | +1.359 | 1.01595 | | AA, monotone | 77.759 | 85.204 | -7.445 | 0.91262 | | AA, paired | 88.656 | 85.204 | +3.452 | 1.04051 | | A7s, all flops | 11.966 | 60.984 | -49.018 | 0.19622 | | A7s, rainbow, ten or higher | 7.113 | 60.984 | -53.871 | 0.11664 | | A7s, rainbow, nine or lower | 12.722 | 60.984 | -48.262 | 0.20861 | | A7s, two-tone | 13.437 | 60.984 | -47.547 | 0.22034 | | A7s, monotone | 22.241 | 60.984 | -38.743 | 0.36470 | | A7s, paired | 11.344 | 60.984 | -49.640 | 0.18602 | ## Does a shared suit matter? AA and A7s never overlap in suit in a legal deal, so the whole matchup sits in the no-shared-suit row. **AA against A7s by suit overlap, in percent** | Deals | Specific deals | Share of deals | AA wins | Ties | A7s wins | AA equity | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Share a suit | 0 | 0.00 | not possible | not possible | not possible | not possible | | No shared suit | 12 | 100.00 | 87.383 | 1.303 | 11.314 | 88.034 | ## How often this matchup comes up Counting specific cards, AA against A7s appears in 12 of the 1,624,350 ordered heads-up deals (0.0007%), and in 24 when the seats are swapped too (0.0015%). ## A worked example Take a $200 pot built from $100 each. AA's equity of 88.03% is worth $176.06, a $76.06 edge, and A7s' 11.97% is worth $23.94, which is $76.06 under its stake.
