    Default percentage question A 2 vs KQ

    Hey ive been lurking around this forum reading a lot and finally made a name becuase i was curious of what would win A 2 off or K Q off. And how would yuo go about calculating this. ALso is there a program where i could put multiple hands in and see the percentages??

    Thanks

    I suppose A2o is slight favourite because if neither hand hits anything then A2o would win - unless the community cards are the best hand ie. 56789 straight, then its a shared pot. You both have the same odds of hitting a pair - but if an Ace hits then A2o becomes a big favourite. I'd much rather be holding A2 in a heads up pre flop showdown - but its still a coin flip situation really.
    There are plenty of sites on the internet showing how to calculate odds of hitting cards which describe them much better than I could. Search away - you'll find one.

    A2o - 57.5%
    KQo - 42.5%

    If you want a program that gives exact results, go to pokerstove.com Its kinda slow on hands that it goes to 8 billion itterations, but....
    Is that guy still part of the forum??

    In spite of this contrived example, A2o still blows chunks.

    Agreed.... not a whole lot to hope for other than hitting an ace and hoping no one else has one. Also, winning with Ace high just gives me shivers. I don't even want to get into drawing to the low end of a striaght

    Cardplayer.com has a great poker odds calculator on it as well as being a great site.
    -It seemed like a good idea at the time-
