i.e. 65 suited becomes favourite over AK!!

I'm guessing this is wrong. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] Anyone with a reliable hand simulator able to confirm this, and can anyone recommend a simulator? Preferably free to download?

I get the same results using pokerstove.

Hmm, to the hand, yes. I expected 76s to be +EV here, but this is ludicrous.

Re: Bizzare hand simulator results
 

I got the same thing with my simulator. It's because the A K has one of his aces missing and a Q which is one of his straight cards. Plus the 6 5 is suited. Without the AQ hand in the mix, the AK becomes the favorite (57.6%). But by eliminating the A and Q from the deck, and 6 5 being suited, this tips the scale to slightly favor 5 6 suited.

Try pocket aces vs. 65 suited. 6 5 suited is the best possible hand to have against pocket aces heads up. It seems wrong but it's right.

Plus, none of the overcards are of the same suit as 65

Why would you expect 76s to be more +EV than 65s vs. these cards?

5 is one of the A's wheel cards

Having live cards rocks.

Play around with the A5 anomaly too, it seems that always gets asked on here.

Re: Bizzare hand simulator results
 

I didn't, I meant to type 65s lol. What I mean is that I expected 65s to win > 1/3 of the time... but not more than AK.

CardPlayer - I know it's a bit of a cumbersome calculator, but for these types of hands I like how the results look.
