TT against A9o: the numbers
| Hand | Wins | Ties | Loses | Equity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TT | 72.007 | 0.359 | 27.634 | 72.187 |
| A9o | 27.634 | 0.359 | 72.007 | 27.813 |
Here a pocket pair (TT) meets an offsuit hand (A9o). The pair is ahead of one card and behind the other, so the board decides how that plays out.
A lead of 44.38 points is large but not decisive: A9o still takes about 276 of every 1,000 deals. The tie share is 0.36%: on those boards the pot is chopped and neither hand wins outright.
Ranked by equity against a random hand, TT is number 5 of the 169 starting hands and A9o is number 25.
| Hand | Boards won, about | Boards tied, about | Boards lost, about |
|---|---|---|---|
| TT | 88,774,000 | 443,000 | 34,069,000 |
| A9o | 34,069,000 | 443,000 | 88,774,000 |
Exact total: 72 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.
| Hand | Equity as odds (to 1) | Wins one deal in | Loses one deal in | Pot odds needed to call (to 1) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TT | 2.595 | 1.389 | 3.619 | 0.385 |
| A9o | 0.385 | 3.619 | 1.389 | 2.595 |
The last column is the smallest pot odds, written as a pot-to-call ratio, at which a call breaks even with this equity.
