25.0%
Call. 46.2% equity for A-K suited beats the 25.0% this call needs to break even.
Calling 50 makes a final pot of 200, so the call needs 25.0% equity to break even. That is exact when no more betting follows, as on the river or against an all-in.

How to use the poker odds and equity calculator
Poker Skill's odds calculator is a free poker equity calculator for Texas Hold'em: pick up to six hands and the board, and it shows how often each hand wins or ties, with each hand's equity beside its odds.
- Pick the hands. Tap a card to change it, then pick the new card's rank and suit. You can also type a hand, like AsKs, with s, h, d and c for the suits. Add up to six hands.
- Set the board as the hand plays out. Leave it empty for the odds before the flop, then add the three flop cards, the turn and the river.
- Read the odds. Each hand shows its chance to win and to tie by the river, and its equity. The Pot odds tab is a pot odds calculator: it tells you whether a call is worth its price.
Worked example: A-K suited against pocket queens
Before the flop, pocket queens win 53.6% of the time against the ace and king of spades. A-K suited wins 46.0% against pocket queens, and 0.4% of boards split the pot. The pair wins more often, but not by much.
On a flop of the seven of spades, four of diamonds and two of hearts, pocket queens win 70.2% against the ace and king of spades, whose best hope is one of the three aces or three kings still in the deck.

Questions about poker odds
What does equity mean in poker?
Equity is your expected share of the pot: what you win on average if the hand is played out many times, counting your part of any split pots. Against pocket queens before the flop, the ace and king of spades have 46.2% equity. The calculator shows each hand's equity beside its odds. There's more in the glossary's entry on equity.
How accurate is this poker odds calculator?
It counts every board that can still come, for two to six hands and on any street, so the odds are exact. Before the flop with two hands, that is all 1,712,304 boards.
What are pot odds?
Pot odds compare the bet you must call with the pot you can win. If the pot was 100 before your opponent bet 50, you call 50 to win the 150 in the middle. That makes a final pot of 200, so you need 25% equity to break even on the call. The Pot odds tab works this out for any pot and bet. To work it out yourself, see how to calculate pot odds.
Does it work for Omaha?
No, it is for Texas Hold'em only. In Omaha each player gets four cards and must use exactly two of them with exactly three from the board. That changes which hands a player can make, so the same cards can have different chances of winning.
What happens when two hands tie in poker?
They split the pot. Two hands tie when their best five-card hands are equal in value, as when both play the board. Matching high cards is not enough, because the other cards, the kickers, can still decide it.
