AJo leads 59.17% to 40.83% before the flop, counted exactly over every board, with the split by flop type and suit. Before any board card is dealt, AJo holds 59.17% equity against 76s, which leaves 76s with 40.83%. ## AJo against 76s: the numbers **Exact preflop results for AJo against 76s, in percent** | Hand | Wins | Ties | Loses | Equity | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | AJo | 58.957 | 0.420 | 40.623 | 59.167 | | 76s | 40.623 | 0.420 | 58.957 | 40.833 | One side is an offsuit hand, the other is a suited hand.

Of every 100 boards, about 0.42 are split pots, and the equity figures already include them. Ranked by equity against a random hand, AJo is number 15 of the 169 starting hands and 76s is number 115. **Boards behind the percentages: 82,190,592 counted in all** | Hand | Boards won, about | Boards tied, about | Boards lost, about | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | AJo | 48,457,000 | 345,000 | 33,388,000 | | 76s | 33,388,000 | 345,000 | 48,457,000 | The total is exact: 48 specific deals times 1,712,304 boards.
