Poker equity is your expected share of the pot if the remaining cards are dealt with no further betting. This calculator compares two specific hands, counting a heads-up tie as half a pot. It answers a different question from the chance of hitting a draw.

How to use the equity calculator
Enter two cards for each player and optionally a flop, turn or complete board. Specific suits matter, so use As Ah rather than just AA. The tool rejects duplicate cards and boards containing only one or two cards. Click Calculate equity after changing the inputs.
If the opponent’s cards are unknown, one guessed holding is not their whole range. Try several plausible holdings and compare the results. This tool does not weight a range or predict what another player is holding.
A turn example you can verify by counting
With As Ah against Ks Kh on 2c 3d 7h 9s, eight physical cards are known. There are 44 possible river cards. Only the two remaining kings let the opponent win; aces win on the other 42. Your equity is 42/44, about 95.45%, with no ties.
This differs from an outs chart that assumes only your own cards and the board are known. Exposing the opponent’s two cards changes which cards remain available.
Exact enumeration versus preflop estimates
From a flop, seven physical cards are known and there are C(45,2) = 990 unordered turn-river combinations. On the turn there are 44 rivers, and a full board has one showdown. The tool counts each of these cases exactly.
Before the flop it samples 20,000 boards with a fixed pseudo-random seed. That is an estimate, not exact enumeration; extra decimal places do not make it exact. The same inputs repeat the same sample. No confidence guarantee or win prediction is implied.
Equity is not the same as a profitable call
Compare equity with the price of a call only under compatible assumptions. Further bets, unequal pot eligibility and rake can change the decision. The calculation assumes both players contest the same pot through the river.
