From the small blind, 76s shoves at every stack from 1 to 20bb, while 76o shoves every time only up to 10.5bb. From the big blind, 76s calls cleanly 1bb deeper than 76o (5bb against 4bb). Suited hands win more often because of flushes, which is why the suited version is the more playable of the pair. ## Where can I check other hands like 76s? The stack pages show the full shove and call charts at each depth, and the hands closest to 76s in strength, along with 76o, have pages of their own. The combos page counts the specific hands that make up 76s and how card removal changes them.

Both players hold one of the 169 starting-hand classes, weighted by the pairs of specific hands that share no card, so blockers count. Blinds are 0.5 and 1 with no ante and equal stacks. Each pair of classes is scored with its exact equity over every five-card board, and the solver repeats best responses against the other side's running average until the hands on the edge are made exactly indifferent.
