Is there an easy way to figure out...
If the flop missed everyone? That is, for X opponents, how likely it is if the flop didn't pair anyone, for each of the three flop cases( 3 ranks, 2 ranks, and one rank)?
Knowing this could be useful in a blindsteal situation. I'm not looking for something that's 100% precise, just something that's easy to get an estimation from, like the "multiply outs by 2 for each street" trick you can use for figuring your odds on the flop. |

Re: Is there an easy way to figure out...
The general formula is
p = C[52 - iRanks*4, 2*iOpp]/C[52, 2*iOpp] where C is the choose function, iRanks is the number of ranks on the flop, iOpp is the number of opponents, and p is the probability that none of those opponents get a pair, trips, or quads. The table below shows all the probabilities. <font class="small">Code:</font><hr /><pre> 1 Rank 2 Ranks 3 Ranks 0.959 0.804 0.663 1 opponents miss 0.918 0.641 0.431 2 opponents miss 0.878 0.505 0.274 3 opponents miss 0.837 0.393 0.171 4 opponents miss 0.796 0.302 0.103 5 opponents miss 0.755 0.229 0.061 6 opponents miss 0.714 0.170 0.034 7 opponents miss 0.673 0.124 0.019 8 opponents miss 0.633 0.089 0.010 9 opponents miss </pre><hr /> For example, if you have 4 opponents and there are 3 ranks on the flop (no pair and no trip), then the probability that none of them has a pair is 17.1%. |

The general formula is p = C[52 - iRanks*4, 2*iOpp]/C[52, 2*iOpp] [/ QUOTE ] You should be dividing by the number of possibilities given the flop you see, so that should be C[49, 2*iOpp] even if you are ignoring the cards you have. If you do want to use the information about the cards you have, then if you have n cards in the ranks of the flop, the conditional probability everyone else has none is C[52-4 iRanks - (2-n), 2 iOpp] ------------------------------ C[47, 2 iOpp] Keep in mind that this counts having an overpair or flopping a flush or straight as missing the flop. If I have A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] and the flop is 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], I would think of that as hitting the flop very hard. |

Re: Is there an easy way to figure out...
Yea, I agree pzhon, but it's nice to just have an estimate in your head, and the easiest way to do that I figure is with pairings. The more coordinated the board is the higher probability someone has a piece of it, but it's nice to have a starting point.

[/ QUOTE ] Thanks pzhon, I incorrectly typed the formula rather than cutting and pasting [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] . The table I gave is correct, but p = C[52 - iRanks*4, 2*iOpp]/C[52 - 3, 2.*iOpp] as you said. |

Re: Is there an easy way to figure out...
The formula that phzon posted is the correct one?
