Default Re: % for set over set?

The odds of flopping a set are about 8-1. My math absolutely sucks, but I will take a wild guess and say that the odds of two people flopping one is 20-1?

i am not sure but the percentage chance of flopping a set is .12, so since 2 sets are independent events .12*.12= .0144 or a 1.4 percentage chance. or 71-1 but my process might be wrong

1.4% is a much better approximation than 5%.

At first I multiplied 8 by 8 to get 64-1, but that seemed too high. 20-1 seemed too low. I shoulda just kept my mouth shut.
