Default Raising from the dealer position.

Did I figure this out correctly. Assume that three people are dealt two cards from three completely different decks. They can be dealt exactly the same hand. Now I will rank each two card hand all 1326 combo's from high to low. It is unimportant to me what the ranking system is. Suppose I have two cards that are exactly at the 40th percentile.

Is the probability that I have the best hand.

1-((2*.40)-(.4*.4)) = .36 or 36 percent of the time I have the best hand.

Thanks, Cobra
