Resolved: Holding a pocket pair what is the expectation of only a set.
I posed the question, if holding a pocket pair what is the expectation of flopping only a set without two pair, quads or a full house.
LetYouDown correctly responded: C(2,1)<-Set * C(12,2)<-2Values * C(4,1)*C(4,1)<-2Suits --------------------------------------------------------- C(50,3)<-Total # of possible flops =~ 10.78% TY |

Was another thread entirely necessary, LOL? Glad you're happy to have your answer...sorry for the 9 different explanations that were apparently confusing.
...and do we all get partial credit on whoever you're selling this to? LOL |

Everyone should understand all of these methods, and be able to use them ambidextrously: 2*(48*44/2) / C(50,3) =~ 10.78% 2/50 * 48/49 * 44/48 * 3 =~ 10.78% 2*C(12,2)*4*4 / C(50,3) =~ 10.78% 2*[C(48,2) - 12*C(4,2)] / C(50,3) =~ 10.78% |

Bruce,
Thanks for your help and you may be correct about multiple solutions. I wish my barber could split hairs as well as you like expectations vs probability lol. TY TY |
