How to play it. Mostly a fold. Raise on the button or small blind when the players behind are tight.
J7o pairs at least one of its cards on the flop 32.4% of the time and makes two pair or better 6.0% of the time.
The suited version, J7s, wins 52.3% heads-up, 2.5 points more.
The cards are close enough to make straights, so J7o gains value in pots with several players.
Against nine opponents it wins only 8.1%, less than its fair share of 10.0%, so it does poorly in crowded pots.
