TT vs A2s is a lopsided race — only one of A2s's cards is an overcard to the pair. TT wins 67.5%, A2s wins 32.1%, and 0.4% of boards chop. With roughly half the outs of a true two-overcard flip, A2s is a clear 2.1-to-1 dog that usually needs to pair its live card (or find a sneaky straight/two-pair runout) to win.
At a final table the raw 67.7% / 32.3% split is only half the story — ICM bends it. As the 32.3% underdog, A2s 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, TT vs A2s rewards aggression from the favorite and caution from the dog: TT wants to realize its 67.5% edge by getting value and denying free cards, while A2s should lean on fold equity and position rather than hoping to win the pot at showdown about 1 time in 3.
