Im pretty sure flopzilla no limit range rankings arent about hot and cold equity but i dont understand , for what exactly are they made for? how is it possible that 46o > A6o? i would never choose 46o over A6o for stealing.

I don't use flopzilla, so I may be off the mark here...

46o has the potential to make straights, A6o does not.

I am not familiar with the terms "hot equity" and "cold equity"

You should be able to change the way the hands are ranked. I'm not using Flopzilla myself but googled and found out that there's a dropdown menu for this just above AA, AKs and AQs in the starting hands window. Which ranking it's using now?

I found out that the No Limit ranking is made by the developer and he said on twoplustwo something along the lines "there's no formula, I created it just from my own experience". 64o really isn't better than A6o according to my experience

Could it be possible that the software takes the board into account as well and maybe you had a flop like 643 inserted?

Its not flopzilla,its he Sklansky & Malmuth starting hands table,ranking hands by groups etc.Use the stove mode when you work with flopzilla or the heads up one!

The ranges are designed for different purposes. The HU All in equity and the Sklansky-Malmuth ar the extreme opposites of each other. The latter may be appropriate for deep-stack multiway and/or limped pots. A 6-max semi-aggro game would have something in between in terms of profitability.
