Well you're only ahead of Jack high or lower at the moment. If you mean what hands are you a favorite to beat by the river, that's a different question. You're a favorite over 1 pair, a dog to a set or higher flush draw, and more or less a coinflip with two pair. The specifics depend on things like what two cards are clubs, if he has a backdoor flush draw, etc. Here's a good site to test these scenarios:

Thanks...that site is pretty cool..
so I plugged QJ clubs vs AK of spades on that board and it said the EV was .976...does this mean it will win 97% of the time vs any Ak without a club?

That includes percentage of time that you will split the pot. You have to look down below to find your win percentage.
