High Card wins an all in

NLHE SnG. Two players go all in, neither has a pocket pair, what is the probability that the highest card of the 4 wins it? Do we ignore straights and flushes?

I see A6 has a 57% chance of winning against KQ, so you're better of pushing with Ax than pictures?

Re: High Card wins an all in

Ignoring flushes, straights,the possibility that no card from either hand plays and duplicated cards in the two hands the odds of high card winning are C(37,5)/C(49,5)=22.9%.
