On page 135... I am confused as to where the calculations are coming from.
1. He Holds a High Pair: 50% times 92% = 46%
2. He Holds Trips: 40% times 10% = 4%
3. He's Bluffing: 10% times 97% = 10% (rounded)
I understand where he gets the 50%, 40%, 10% as well as the results but what confuses me is where the 92%, 10%, and 97% come from.
I was thinking maybe it was from page 126 which are preflop winning probabilities but the first one stats that a high pair over low pair wins 86% of the time. So, I am lost as to where this number came from.
Is the 10% in number 2, the percent that you will hit your own set to win?
And the 97% the chance that you will win against the bluff mentioned?
Please be gentle, just trying to learn. Also, is this the right forum for this?
