Lets say you've got a little 3-flush and want to know your odds. You must hit on both turn AND river. Turn chances are 10/47 and river chances (if you make the turn) are 9/46. AND means multiply so your chances are 10/47*9/46 = .042 (4.2%). Odds are 1-.042:.042=.958:.042=23:1 against. A 2-out pocket-pair draw would be 22.5:1 against; so your back-door flush draw has the same chance as snagging a 2 to go with your 22 on the flop. But since you need to call again on the turn with your draw, its "worth" only about 1.5 outs.

100% chance that the turn and river card make a winning hand (one way or another)

you dont provide information. if he has a pair of 6's and needs 6-6 its different than if he has 3 to a flush and heads heart-heart which is different than if he has 10-8-6 and needs 7-9
