In Hold'em, if one person has say K2 os, and the other person has K3 os, what are the odds they will tie?

K3 - Win (28.16%) Tie (49.76%)

K2 - Win (22.07%) Tie (49.76%)

There is a a 49.76% chance the hand will end in a tie assuming that all 4 suits are used.  Things will change a bit if they both have a heart, club, diamond, or spade.

Answer 2

The real question should be, "what are the odds of two people playing such bad hands at the same time?" lol, I imagine there would be a split pot around 80% or higher, of the time.  Each only has three outs to win by a pair, and there are two (or 1 depending on what the suits are ,one could have ks, 2 h other kh 3s) backdoor flush possibiliies, and each has a backdoor wheel possibility.  The reason I say that (80%) is lets say the board comes k, 9,9, 2,a (just an example, still a split pot even though one kicker was paired.
