Suited vs offsuit: AT

How AT vs KJ unfolds by street

Ace-Ten (AT) is still ahead on 70% of flops against KJ, and the lead survives to the turn on 64%. KJ takes the lead on the other 30% of flops. These figures come from full board enumeration, not a simulation.

AT vs KJ is a four-live-card fight — no pair, no shared rank, just rank order and geometry. AT wins 59.3%, KJ wins 40.3%, and 0.5% of boards chop. Whoever pairs first usually scoops, so the edge comes from AT making the higher pair plus whatever straight and flush equity runs between the two hands.

Think in variance terms: 59.5% equity means AT loses this all-in nearly 41 times in 100, so even a "dominant" spot is a coin you'll see come up tails plenty. Getting it in as the 59.5% favorite is correct every time; the 40.5% that goes the other way is math, not a misplay.

In practice, AT vs KJ rewards aggression from the favorite and caution from the dog: AT wants to realize its 59.3% edge by getting value and denying free cards, while KJ should lean on fold equity and position rather than hoping to win the pot at showdown about 1 time in 2.

Does the AT vs KJ probability change all-in preflop?

No. Once both hands are all-in preflop the odds are set by the cards alone — position, stack size and who bet first change nothing. The only thing that moves the number is suits: AT's equity runs from 55.9% to 62.1% depending on suitedness and which suits the two hands share, which is why different sites quote slightly different figures.
