Suited vs offsuit: AT

How AT vs QJ unfolds by street

Ace-Ten (AT) is still ahead on 68% of flops against QJ, and the lead survives to the turn on 64%. QJ takes the lead on the other 32% of flops. These figures come from full board enumeration, not a simulation.

AT vs QJ is a four-live-card fight — no pair, no shared rank, just rank order and geometry. AT wins 58.2%, QJ wins 41.3%, and 0.4% 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.

At a final table the raw 58.5% / 41.5% split is only half the story — ICM bends it. As the 41.5% underdog, QJ pays an extra survival premium, so the chip-EV "close enough" call can be a clear ICM fold. The pure equity sets the floor; the payout ladder sets the real price.

In practice, AT vs QJ rewards aggression from the favorite and caution from the dog: AT wants to realize its 58.2% edge by getting value and denying free cards, while QJ should lean on fold equity and position rather than hoping to win the pot at showdown about 1 time in 2.
