K2o ranks 87 out of the 169 starting hands in Hold'em. Against a random hand it wins 50.4% of the time, which puts it ahead of 51.9% of all possible deals once the deck is sorted by that equity. It comes with 12 of the 1,326 possible combinations — 0.9% of the hands you will be dealt.

How to play it before the flop

The fundamentals charts never open it at a 6-max table: it is a preflop fold when the pot is unopened. If the button opens and you are in the big blind, the chart says fold.

No suit, no connection, no high card to carry a pot: this is the part of the deck you fold. Against the button range — the widest at the table — it has 37.9%. No line fixes a hand like this; the money you save folding it is the money you win.

What this hand makes

You pair one of your two cards on 32.4% of flops. Going to the river every time, the hand ends up as pair 46.3% of the time and stays high card 20.2%.

Exact enumeration, no sampling: the flop events run through all 19,600 possible flops and the final distribution through all 2,118,760 five-card boards. The distribution assumes you always reach the river, so it describes the hand’s potential rather than a real session, where most hands are folded earlier. Open-ended includes double gutshots (two distinct ranks complete it).
