## What makes Q6o different from similar hands?

Q6o is 12 combos out of the 1,326 two-card hands and ranks number 81 of the 169 starting-hand classes by equity against a random hand. From the small blind, Q6o shoves every time only up to 9.5bb, while Q6s shoves at every stack from 1 to 20bb. From the big blind, Q6o calls cleanly 2.5bb shallower than Q6s (7bb against 9.5bb). The offsuit version has three times as many combos but gives up the flush equity of its suited twin.

## How were the numbers for Q6o computed?

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.
