Default Re: low cards in the flop (O8/B )

Sam,

I guess my issue is the uncertain meaning of "different". Is it different from A24, or simply different ranks from each other? For example, for one low card, my math is as follows... there are 29 of them left in the deck and there are (29 choose 2 =) 171 ways to pick two high cards, so 29*171/17,296 = 28.7% chance of flopping one low card. If you exclude the As, 2s and 4s, the calc is 20*171/17,296 = 19.8% chance of flopping one low card. Neither one is close to Cappelletti's answer. Am I smoking the wacky weed on this one?
