Re: A guy did this twice in a live tourney....

Re: odds of hitting two over cards

What?

So with that same math:

6/50 + 6/49 + 6/48 + 6/47 + 6/46

and the average of the others is 48, so that's 30/48 = .625.

Re: What would you do here?

Re: what percentage of poker players are winning players in the long run?

How is it possible that the number is so low?

Most people seem to play smart poker, in which case the percentage should be around 50%. Throw in a few donkeys, drunks, and players on tilt and that...

Re: odds of hitting two over cards

Thanks, Gonso,

I've been playing poker for about a year now, and got interested in that question just out of curiosity.

For some reason I was taking the odds of succeeding at hitting the card,...

odds of hitting two over cards

Hello,

Is it more likely to hit your two over cards versus a smaller pair (AK versus 88 for example) or less likely? My math is probably wrong, but it goes as follows:

I hold two cards, AK, and...
