2-card Poker: Favorite Hands

[Siegmund]

I am assuming suited hands are not worth anything extra in this game.

By my count, J8 loses to 600 hands, ties 9, and beats 616, while J7 loses to 612, ties 9, and beats 604.

Exact answers to multiway games are going to require more than what I can do in my head and a Notepad window to keep track of figures. Does "to be a favorite" mean to win more than half the time, or to win more than 1/N of the time, incidentally?
