TT vs JTs mixes a pair with an overlapping overcard, so an out on each side is already in someone's hand. TT wins 60.4%, JTs wins 37.8%, and 1.8% of boards chop. That blocking effect is why TT is a firmer 1.6-to-1 favorite than a straight pair-vs-two-overcards race.
Here's the intuition behind 61.3% to 38.7%: TT wins roughly 2 of every 3 times the chips go in, but the underdog cashing 38.7% of the time is exactly why you can't slow-play and let it draw for free.
How you play TT vs JTs depends on which side you hold. With TT you're not crushing, so keep the pot controllable and take the 60.4% edge to showdown when you can; with JTs, your equity is enough to continue with initiative but thin enough that bloating the pot out of position is a trap.
