Default How often you get dealt a certain hand???

Any sites where you can calculate how often you get dealt a particular hand? Eg how often you get A2xx, or say A4s??

You can always use your trusty pokertracker database.

"You can always use your trusty pokertracker database."

But that only gives me the % it's been dealt to ME, not how often it SHOULD be dealt?

J,

But, if your sample size is large enough (and yours probably is) the percentage of time A 2 is dealt to you is the same it would be dealt to me or anyone else at the table.

Those numbers should be darn close.

you can use some math--- there are 52x51x50x49 divided 4x3x2x1 possible combinations.

How many are A2xx assuming xx is not another A or 2?

4(A) x 4(2) x (44x43 divided by 2) equals how many A2xx combinations. Divided this number times total combinations to get % time you should get A2.

I'm on a library's computer so I can't do the math.

Mikey - He might want to also play AA2X, A22X, and AAA2.

A2XY...4*4*44*43/2...15136
AA2X...6*4*44.........1056
A22X...4*6*44.........1056
AAA2...4*4..............16

total is 17264

then 17264/270725 = ~0.06377

That's about one time in 16 or so deals.
