Can you help me make an estimation...

[CallMeIshmael]

Given this information:

AKo vs 66

Hand 1: 45.0113 % 44.82% 00.19% { AcKd }
Hand 2: 54.9887 % 54.79% 00.19% { 6c6s }


AKo vs 98s
equity (%) win (%) tie (%)
Hand 1: 59.6167 % 59.42% 00.20% { AcKd }
Hand 2: 40.3833 % 40.19% 00.20% { 9s8s }


98s vs 66
equity (%) win (%) tie (%)
Hand 1: 50.1147 % 49.67% 00.44% { 6c6s }
Hand 2: 49.8853 % 49.44% 00.44% { 9s8s }


Is there a way to derive an estimate for

AKo vs 98s vs 66?

If so, can it be used with 4+ hands. And, how accurate is it?

No, there isn't a good way to derive such an estimate at all from the pairwise data.

Suppose any pair of hands is 50-50. Together, it is possible that hand A wins 60%, and hands B and C win 20% each:

It could be 56-22-22:

T/images/graemlins/spade.gif 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif 0.219
T/images/graemlins/club.gif 9/images/graemlins/diamond.gif 0.219

It could be 33-33-33:

A/images/graemlins/spade.gif K/images/graemlins/spade.gif 0.333
A/images/graemlins/heart.gif K/images/graemlins/heart.gif 0.333
A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif K/images/graemlins/diamond.gif 0.333

It could be that hand A is a favorite heads up against B and C, and an underdog in a 3-way pot:

J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif T/images/graemlins/diamond.gif 0.422

and vice versa:
