64s ranks 138 out of the 169 starting hands in Hold'em. Against a random hand it wins 41.2% of the time, which puts it ahead of 21.4% of all possible deals once the deck is sorted by that equity. It comes with 4 of the 1,326 possible combinations — 0.3% 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.
A gap costs straights. Same idea as the connector — draws, not high card — with fewer ways to complete them, which is why it lives on the edge of the button opening range. Against that button range it has 37.0%. With a gap, be pickier: position always, and ideally with stacks left to get paid on the draw.
What this hand makes
You pair one of your two cards on 32.4% of flops. You flop a flush draw 10.9% of the time and a made flush 0.84%; seeing all five cards, you end up with a flush 6.4% of the time. An open-ended straight draw shows up on 7.0% of flops. Going to the river every time, the hand ends up as pair 41.4% of the time and stays high card 16.5%.
Where it ends up if you see all five cards
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).
