Maybe one of you fine people in the Probability forum can help us not so smart MTT people out with this. I'd like to know the % of time you flop a "strong" hand with something like 72o vs. 76s in Hold Em. I would define a "strong" hand as two pair or better plus 12+ outers like a pair/flush draw or pair/open ender or flush/gutshot draw. Your help is appreciated.

I wrote a program to do this over the summer. I posted the results for suited 1 gappers and suited connectors here (http://archiveserver.twoplustwo.com/showthreaded.php?Cat=0&Board=probability&Number=27 56873).

For a suited connector, you will have a "strong" hand on 3142 flops, or 16.0% of the time.

For 72o you get 1230 "strong" flops, or 6.3% of the time.

I can't see how you're going to flop a big hand with 76s that often.

Did the addition wrong. I must've added in regular flush draws or something like that by accident. I got ~11% this time.

Point is, you can easily do all the math you want for any combination of flops by following that link.
