Default Re: how do i do this 2-7 tripple draw math

I just did the math out in a spread sheet. i have to get a 4,6,7, or 8 on the first card. there's a 8.5% chance of each for a total of 34%. if you get a 4 or 6 you have 8 outs (a 7 or an 8) and if you get a 7 or 8 you have 12 outs (4, 6 and 8 or 7). so half that 34% you have 17% to improve and the other half you have 26% to improve. do out the multiplication and it turns out you have 7.4% chance to make an 8 with a 235. break even is about 12:1
