View Full Version : Chance of being dealt a range of hands?
I'm interested in knowing the method for calculating the chance of a player getting a hand within a range of hands?
For instance the %chance of getting AA-22, AKs-A2s, AKo-A7o, KQs-K9s, KQo-KTo, QJos, QTs, JTs ??

There are 6 ways to make each pair, 4 ways to make each suited combination, and 12 ways to make each offsuit non-pair. There are 52*51/2 = 1326 possible hands all together, assuming all 52 cards are unseen:
AA-22: 6*13 = 78
AKs-A2s: 4*12 = 48
AKo-A7o: 12*7 = 84
KQs-K9s: 4*4 = 16
KQo-KTo: 12*3 = 36
QJos: 16 (assuming this means offsuit or suited)
QTs: 4
JTs: 4
----------------------
286/1326 = 21.6%.
Just what I was looking for. Thx a bunch
