Default Re: board pairing

The board is a slight favorite to be unpaired in 5 cards. The number of unpaired boards counting every order the cards can occur in is 52*48*44*40*36. The number of total boards is 52*51*50*49*48. The ratio is 50.7% unpaired boards.

Default Re: board pairing

If the flop is unpaired then the chance the board will remain unpaired at the river is 61.2%. The calculation is the same as Bruce's, just with the last two numbers: 40*36 / 49*48
