Most opponents fold before the river, so fewer long-shot draws will beat kings in actual play. For example, in real life, a pair of kings will win more than the 26% of the time indicated on the chart. The no-fold'em type of simulation can skew results somewhat.

Each hand was tested 400,000 times against nine random hands. The data was produced by simulations assuming a ten-handed game with no folding - all cards were played to the river. Although there are 2,652 different two-card combinations in a deck, they are composed of 169 types of hands. Similarly, pairs are pairs no matter which suits are involved. For example, jack-ten suited is just as strong whether hearts or spades, so all suited jack-tens are considered one type. 169 represents the number of different types of Texas holdem hands, rather than all possible two-card combinations in a deck. Aces win against nine opponents 31% of the time, while 72 offsuit wins only once in 25 hands.

This chart ranks holdem hands from best (AA) to worst (72o).
