what's the closest preflop hold em matchup to 50/50

PokerGOAT · #1 06-28-2007, 06:02 AM

outside of identical hands of different suits, are there any exactly 50/50 preflop matchups?

closest i've found so far is 6d 9d against 4d 4s, the 44 is an extremely small favorite.

7d 9d
5s 5c

I only tried a few hands, I bet theres a closer one out there

Two dimes seems to report a .502 to .498 edge for a lot of situations. I can't seem to find anything closer.
