K 4.4%

Re: The odds of trips.

The probability that someone at your table was dealt one or more sixes after the flop is relatively easy to determine. The usefulness of this information is suspect because you don't know wether...

Re: Is this considered a bad beat?

To put some numbers behind this when it came time for him to call your all in bet there was 137 in the pot and he needed to call 110. This is pot odds of 1.25 to 1. Therefore he needs a win rate of...

Re: calculating correct pot odds

[ QUOTE ]
~ 36% or c. 2.75:1 (this excludes any other outs you think are good, but in this case and A might be bad since it gives a straight draw life, so I exclued any A as an "out"). So if I'm...

Re: Flopping Multiple Sets..

LetyouDown,

I believe you have a couple of errors.

(C(3,1) * C(3,1) * C(44,1))/C(48,3)

Should be C(2,1)*c(2,1)*44/c(48,3) = 1.02%

The probability of two people getting exactly two sets...

Re: How would you calculate hitting a King or Ace Flop if you\'re have AK

A rule of thumb for hitting one or more of your cards on the flop is 5.5% times number of outs. Examples below:

AK hitting one or more: =6*5.5 = 33%
AX hitting an Ace: = 3*5.5 = 16.5%
KQ and...

Re: Raising from the dealer position.

Yes LetYouDown, that is what I am asking. If you don't mind how did you come up with that answer. I am more interested in how the answer was derived than the answer itself.

Re: Raising from the dealer position.

When I say 40th percentile I mean 60 percent of the hands are worse than it and 40 percent are better.

Re: Odds of OESD

LetYouDown

Your answer is slightly off. By doing it the way you did you are double counting certain flops. These things are tricky.

For example if the flop comes 4-5-X you should originally...

Case one you get a 4 or 8 on the turn, there is 8 outs and 47 cards. = 8/47 = 17.02%

Case two you get a 3 or 9 on the turn, there is 8 outs and...
