Who has the range advantage on J 6 2 rainbow?

Small Button edge: the Button has nearly all the overcard hands, and the Big Blind arrives with more air.

BTN vs BB single-raised pot: the button opens, the big blind calls.

dry / rainbow

Button: 51.2% Big Blind: 48.8%
Button strong hands: 5.8% Big Blind strong hands: 3.0%

Share of each range that is sets, two pair, overpairs, straights or better, and combo draws. This is who wins the big pots.

With the range and nut edge together, a small bet with the Button's whole range profits. Try swapping the lowest card for a middle connector and watch the edge move.

A jack-high desert. The button has the jacks with the better kickers and all the overpairs; the big blind holds more weak jacks and middling suited hands that find almost nothing to continue with.
