Frequently Asked Questions: 32s vs 87s

Who is favored to win between 32s and 87s?

87s holds the statistical advantage with 65.95% equity and a 63.81% win rate. 32s has 34.05% equity and wins 31.91% of the time, with a 4.29% chance of splitting the pot.

How does this matchup change on the flop?

Pre-flop equities represent full five-card river run-outs across all 1.7 million combinatorial boards. However, the three-card flop accounts for roughly 71% of a hand's final texture. When the flop brings cards that coordinate with the underdog's holdings (such as straight or flush draws, or hitting an overcard), the trailing hand's equity can surge past 65–75% on the turn.

What is the probability of a split pot or bad beat?

In this exact matchup, the tie probability is 4.29%. The underdog has a direct win probability of 31.91%, meaning the trailing hand will overturn the favorite roughly 1 in every 3.1 showdowns.

How should you play this matchup in tournaments vs cash games?

In deep-stacked cash games (100bb+), position and post-flop implied odds dictate whether calling pre-flop raises is profitable. In tournament play with shallower stack depths (under 25bb), stack-to-pot ratios (SPR) shrink dramatically, making all-in shoves and 3-bet commitments mathematically dictated by pre-flop push/fold equity rather than post-flop maneuvering.
