Why this matchup plays the way it does
The textbook worst-starting-hand matchup — 72o has no pair, no real straight or flush shape, and no overcard to AA. It survives purely on the small chance it flops two pair, trips, or a miracle straight; there's no 'live overcard' equity like AK or KQ would have.

FAQ
- What are the odds of AA vs 72o?
- AA wins 87.3% of the time, ties 0.4%, and loses 12.3% against 72o, based on a 50,000-trial Monte Carlo simulation dealt out to the river.
- Is this preflop or postflop equity?
- This is preflop all-in equity — both hands are dealt out to a random river with no further betting decisions. It's the standard number quoted for 'X vs Y odds' searches.
- Why might my actual result differ?
- This number assumes both hands go to showdown with no more folding. In a real hand with betting on each street, the player with worse preflop equity can still win more often than this number suggests by folding when behind, or less often by continuing when they shouldn't.
