How big of an underdog do you have to be to be considered "dominated"?

I always thought of "domination" as being outkicked with only 2 or 3 outs – AK vs AQ, KJ vs K10, A6 vs J6, etc.

I don't think 49% to 51% is considered being dominated. If that were the case, then ace-king would be considered a bad starting hand.

Okay, so all of those are around 25% equity. Fair to say that anything under 30% equity is considered being dominated?

I would say < 30% equity would work as a rough definition of being "dominated" preflop. So this would not only include hands like AQ vs AK, but also overpairs vs underpairs like KK vs JJ, 99 vs 77, etc.
