Default Re: Adjusting draw percentages

The folding preflop of an any two suited doesn't help you. You now know that he didn't have two hearts, but there is still about a 9/45 chance that each of his cards was a heart. Basically, the no heart hands he can't have had ( [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], for example), make up for the two heart hands he can't have had.

You will be close to correct if you never adjust the demoninator (and sometimes adjust the numerator).

My logic is that is a player plays any 2 suited all of the time and he folds pre-flop that I know that 1 of his cards is not of my suit. He can't have 2 hearts the max he can have is 1. Therefore since I know 1 is not a heart I can discount 1 card for this person. Since I don't know if he had 1 heart or 0 hearts I can't discount his second card only 1 of the 2.
