Default Re: ODDS ON BIG HANDS AFTER CUTOFF

Even assuming independence, the denominator would not just change by 1 for each player. The first one would be C(50,2) = 1225, but the second should be C(48,2) = 1128,

Right you are. Silly mistake, though it didn't seem to affect the answer much. Also, nice use of the OR forumula to get the exact answer.
