Pocket 44 Odds at a 2-Player Table

Simulated across 100,000 random deals, Pocket 44 wins 56.56% of hands against 1 random opponent, ties 0.75% of the time, and loses the remaining 42.7%. A completely random hand would win about 50% of the time at this table size — Pocket 44 is a modestly favorable hand at this table size.

As a pocket pair, Pocket 44 starts with immediate made-hand value and doesn’t rely on the board pairing to stay ahead, though with more players in the hand there’s more chance someone draws out with two pair, trips, or better.
