Total combinations
If there are 46 unseen cards (turn card is showing). I am holding 8d 9d, the board is 10d Jd Qd. There is only 1 possible hand combination that can beat me Kd Qd, but how many possible hand combinations are left out there. I calc 1035. Is that correct?

[/ QUOTE ] First, you made a typo: I think you meant Kd Ad for the hand that beats you. Second, your calculatons for the number of possible hand combinations is correct. However, this is not an accurate estimate of how likely you are to be beat. Eg, you have not considered these possiblities: 1. Somebody holds Kd. River comes Ad. 2. Somebody holds Ad. River comes Kd. So you cannot say, "There was less than a 1 in 1000 chance I was beat."
