Re: Odds Question
you'd probably have thrown up if he'd turned over 77, 88 or JJ, as well
i'm not sure that this is correct but the way i would look at it is you know five cards, and therefore there are 47 x 46 = 2162 ways of dealing him his two
there are 3 x 2 = 6 ways each to deal him 77, 88, or JJ, = 18, and 8 x 4 = 32 ways of dealing him T9 or 9T, = 50 total
which means it is 2112 to 50 = 42 to 1 to get your second dinner free
