How to play JTs
Playing it before the flop
Raise it from every position. JTs holds 57.5% against a random hand and, unusually, keeps most of that equity against the hands that continue against it, it makes top pair with a strong kicker, the best flush, and straights that are hard to read.
Facing a 3-bet
Continue. Suited broadways are the hands that make 3-bet pots playable: they flop enough equity to call profitably and enough nut potential to raise. Which of the two you pick depends on the opponent, but folding is rarely right.
After the flop
JTs is at its best when it flops a draw rather than a made hand, because that is when it can apply pressure without needing to be right. Suited cards make a flush roughly once in twenty flops, but they make a flush *draw* about one in nine, and that is where the money is.
Common matchups
JTs questions
How often does JTs win?
JTs wins 57.5% of the time against a single random hand, 56.2% outright, with a 2.8% chance of splitting the pot. That makes it the 44th strongest of the 169 starting hands.
Should I raise with JTs?
Yes, from under the gun onward in a six-handed game. Earlier than that there are too many players still to act for the hand to be profitable as an open.
How many combinations of JTs are there?
There are 4 combinations of Jack-Ten suited, which is 0.3% of the 1,326 possible starting hands. Every suited hand has four, one per suit.
How does JTs hold up against several opponents?
Against eight opponents its equity falls to 18.0%. Every extra player reduces the share, but a hand that makes the nuts loses less of it than a hand that only makes a pair.
