Probabilities Website?
Hey guys.
I'm looking for a recommendation on a good probabilities website. Thing is, recently I was working on hand distributions, and I said something like: A pair is 4*3/2 = 6 hands Overs (AK) is 4*4/2 = 8 hands. This isn't true. Basically, because the overs are created of 4 unique aces, each with a set of 4 unique kings: there's no overlaps, and therefore we have 16 hands rather than 8 hands. Also, the pairs isn't really 4*3/2, but rather, 4*3/2!, which is equivalent... Where I would run into trouble using the /2 rather than /2! is if I were trying to figure out the chances for flopping a monotone flop, which would involve something like /3!, rather than a potential mistake: /3 (the difference between 3*2*1 (=6) and 3.) ---------- Anyways, I'm kinda embarassed at my amateur mistake, and would like to check out a beginner's probability website, that would cover this material. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know! --Dave. |

Re: Probabilities Website?
I really have no idea what you're talking about because you mention "overs" and "pairs" without any context.
Monotone flop with no known cards: 4 * C(13,3)/C(52,3) = 5.18% Decent intro to probability text What I'm gleaning from your post is that you're having trouble differentiating between combinations and permutations. You should be able to find something in < 10 seconds on google. |
