Why ?

<< < (9/9)

Jon MW:
The general answer is the extra chances you get for straights and flushes outweigh the higher card value.

I assume.

I"m guessing it is Stove that gives you this range if you ask for top 10%?  Just found it curious that this essentially rates QTs/QJs as a better hand than KJo....?

hopefully this will answer your question,from a -+ev point of view sklansky and others have over time worked out hand groupings - KJo is a group 5 whereas QJs is
a 3 and QTs is a 4
if you press the statistics based on real play link you find KJo is rated even lower.
