Default Re: Holdem Challenge

For what it's worth, I ran a 100,000 hand simulation. It was pretty simple-minded. It picked the hand from among the three that has the best chance of winning against two other randomly-picked hands, rather than against the two that were actually there. For example, it always picked J6 unsuited over a pair of 2's, but the relative value of those two hands depends on what the third hand is. That made the code much easier to write, but it gave away some value.

Anyway, the best hand going in won 40% of the time.
