    If all the cards are different suits, you're looking at about 72% v 24% with 4% chance of a split.

    Mere's answer is correct I would assume, but it DOES depend how the hand is played, to be fair, as both hands can & often are butchered.

    Assume it all goes in Pre for the stats to be correct.

    We can therefore assume it is situation dependent, because in most cases, (all except short-stacked or late stages of a Tourney) this should never be an AIPF coup.

    Late stages of a Tourney, assuming equal & near average stacks, it pretty much plays itself. At that stage, I'd call most shoves with A-K, & open jam with A-Q, but I'd never call a shove with A-Q unless my situation was really dire, or critical.*

    *Unless the shover was someone like Scotty77, Solly, Dylan, Daiboot, or Nutter. It's a snap-call then, high-five the Dealer, & three table bangs followed by "ship it to the old fella".
