trips calculation
I see this 264 number popping up a lot, and I'm not sure it's right. here's my calculation for 76s:
[(3choose2) the second and third 6's or 7's of the set]*[45 other cards in the deck that don't give you a full house]*[2 flops for the 6 and 7] = 3*45*2 = 270
Are you guys forgetting that there are 45 cards left that don't give a full house, not 44? (Am I somehow wrong about this?)
edit: I forgot to take out the fourth 6 or 7 for the four of a kind.. but I'm not deleting this in case someone makes the same mistake.
