Default Help, I\'m mathematically challenged.

I'm in the BB in a full 10 handed game, and have 8s7s. Another fellow has JcJd.

Flop is 6s5s2h. I am a mathematical favorite to have the best hand by the river?

You have a fouled deck. Assuming we change the suit for the 7 and the two on the board:

depends how many more more 7s did you put in the deck [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img].

assuming that thats a mistake, yes you are a very slight favorite I believe. Although there are probably better forums to ask in.

Yeah, you're about a 54-46 favorite.

Default Sorry, i messed up!

Wrong forum, and wrong description of flop. (I changed it, should have been open end straight flush draw).
