[odds] 3 PP all flop sets

[Frostie78]

I was not in the hand but was wondering what the odds of something like this are.

BTW - After flop action was of course something like raise, re-raise, AI, AI, AI. It's not rigged of course because the best hand wins /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Given that you know two other opponents have pocket pairs , the probability is 2*2*2/46C3=0.00052

However , just because two players are in the pot with you doesn't mean that they hold pocket pairs . The real probability should be even less than that depending on your opponents' hand range .

Wow, actually had the same think happen last night with 22 vs 44 vs 66 (all limped PF) on flop of 642 with 2 diamonds. Only 1 all-in because turn brought a 3 and then river brought 3rd diamond.

I played a hand a year ago where 3 of us had sets on the flop, two others called with over pairs to the board and both hit sets on the turn and the river so that at showdown 5 players had sets at the end of the hand. 3 players not in the hand also said they folded one of the board cards preflop.
