Pocket Tens (TT) is still ahead on 80% of flops against JT, and the lead survives to the turn on 73%. JT takes the lead on the other 20% of flops, almost always by flopping a set. These figures come from full board enumeration, not a simulation.

| Turn | 73% | 27% |
TT vs JT is a card-removal spot: the pair holds one of the cards the unpaired hand most wants. TT wins 63.0%, JT wins 35.1%, and 1.9% of boards chop. Blocking an out (and vice versa) pushes the favorite past a clean race — it's one of the most common all-in confrontations you'll actually face.
At a final table the raw 64.0% / 36.0% split is only half the story — ICM bends it. As the 36.0% underdog, JT 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 JT rewards aggression from the favorite and caution from the dog: TT wants to realize its 63.0% edge by getting value and denying free cards, while JT should lean on fold equity and position rather than hoping to win the pot at showdown about 1 time in 3.

Does the TT vs JT 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: TT's equity runs from 61.3% to 65.0% depending on suitedness and which suits the two hands share, which is why different sites quote slightly different figures. It does change once board cards are dealt (TT leads on 80% of flops) and in multiway pots, where every extra caller takes equity from both hands.

For TT, yes — a 64.0% favorite should happily commit, especially with fold equity. For JT at 36.0%, it depends on the price: enough to continue with initiative, but thin enough that stacking off out of position is usually a leak.
