Default Re: Probability of one OR more person getting dealt hands XX-YY

vqchuang,

The correct answer is somewhat complicated but here is an approximation:

if

X=number of hands that call me (it would be something out of 1225)
Y=number of players still to act behind me
Z=probability of someone (one or more) getting a hand that calls me.

Z ~= (1- (1- X/1225)^Y).
