Default Re: Easy Hold \'em Question

The other way to figure it out is to figure out the chance of hitting on the turn, then adding the chance of hitting on the river (what you tried to do in your example).

You got the chance of hitting on the turn (7/45)=.1555555

The chance of hitting on the river is the chance he didn't hit on the turn (38/45) multiplied by the chance he did hit on the river (7/44) = .134343434...

Add the two together to get .2898989...
