Introduction

The following table ranks the top hands in a 10-player game. This table assumes that all players stay in until the end.

$1.50 per 100 hands x 4 tables = $6 per 400 hands. $6 x 0.85 = $5.10 an hour. (We play 85 hands an hour on average in short-handed games, so we multiply $6 by 0.85 to get our hourly winrate) $/hour = $5.10; Daily winrate example. You play 1 table of full ring $1/$2 NL Hold’em and have a win rate of 2 bb/100 hands. You play an average of 3. Q7x or 'The Computer Hand' is the median poker hand in Texas holdem. If you really want to analyse these things in more depth, I'd suggest getting Pokerstove. You can run all hand matchups with numerous competing opponents through the free software. Ace, King, Queen, Jack, Ten all of one suit, ie diamonds or hearts or clubs or spades.

• Cards: Initial two-card hand.
• Probability of win: Probability that this hand will win, or tie for the win.
• Average win: This is how much the player will win on average, including his own bets, if the player does win. This is less than 10 because sometimes the player will have to split the pot.
• Expected value: This is how many units the player can expected to win (positive) or lose (negative) with this hand. For example if the player had a pair of aces and contibuted $1 to the pot then the player could expect to have a net win of $2.11.
• Probability: Probability of getting this hand to begin with.
• Additive probability: Probability of getting this hand or any stronger hand to begin with.

Methodology

This table is the result of a random simulation of 20,583,763,200 games and assumes all players stay in until the end of the hand.

The following table shows my power rating for each initial 2-card hand in a 10-player game. The numbers are on a 0 to 40 scale. Basically, you should only play hands that are dark green, blue, or purple. Of course you should be more be more liberal in late position and picky in early position. If forced I would say you should need 10 points in late position and 19 points in early position to call the big blind. If your table is loose, as if often the case online, you can play a bit looser yourself.
