In poker heads up on the strength of your starting hands change when compared to a game of table 6 players or complete . This is because there is less opportunity to be facing an opponent with a hand that dominates yours (which is a 70 % favorite against you ) . This article focuses on how to calculate your odds in poker preflop heads up and displays a list of the most common preflop odds that every good player should memorize.
There are a total of 1326 starting hands in Texas holdem poker game , this is calculated by taking one of the 52 cards from the stock pile and then another of the remaining 51 cards :
(1/52) * (1/51) = 1326 combinations .
If we ignore the different combinations of color, then this number can be reduced to 169 different starting hands . Of which 13 are pairs , 78 are letters different but the same color, and the remaining 78 are unpaired cards and a different color .
The cards you are dealt affect the likelihood that your opponent has similar letters . For example if you get an ace preflop then are only 3 remaining aces in the maso . So the odds that your opponent receives an ace fell by 25 % .
The table below shows the probability that you are dealt a certain strength before the flop :
A- A ( 220/1 or 0.45 %)
A- K (81.9 / 1 or 1.1 %)
A- A, K -K, Q or Q- 10-10 (54.3 / 1 or 1.8 %)
Any initial torque ( 16:1 or 6.25 % )
Any two cards with J or higher ( 10.1 / 1 or 9.05 % )
The relative strength of hands in poker headsup preflop can be calculated assuming that your opponent has a hand so random and calculating the most likely chance you have. That is, the odds of your hand winning in the showdown if all the chips were the center immediately , considering the relative strengths of your initial service This hand to your opponent's range .
The table below gives the odds pre flop of a select group of heads up poker hands :
A- A, winning 84.93 % of the time
K - K , wins 82.12 % of the time
Q - Q , won 79.63 % of the time
J -J , wins 77.15 % of the time
A- K ( suited) , wins 64.47 % of the time
K - Q (not suited) , wins 60.43 % of the time
J -10 ( suited) 56.15 % of the time wins
K -4 (not suited) won 50.23 % of the time
Hands inferiors to K -4 off suit are not pro before the flop
The worst is hand is 2-3 (not suited) , won only 29.24 % of the time .
In full table the worst hand is 7-2 off suit because of the distance between the two cards depriving us of the straight . The reason why in HU 2-3 offsuit is the worst human hand is because being a heads-up play and not have to fold much more valuable to have a high card and not the possibility of forming ladder. Many times in HU is earned one top pair, and even more when the blinds are high.
