Re: Bayes or not Bayes, that\'s the question....
When you talk about the number of ways a hand can be made, you have to be careful to specify whether or not order matters. Is As/Ah the same as Ah/As or not? You can calculate it either way, but you have to be consistent.
There are 16 ways to get AK, but eight of them are the same as the other eight with the card reversed. There are 12 ways to get AA, but six of them are the same as the other six.
So 16:12 or 8:6, 4:3 either way.
