You're right and every poker calculator on earth that calculates these statistics is wrong. The experts that run this forum are wrong too, seeing how these stats are published in their books. The geniuses on the probability forum are also wrong. In fact, we're all wrong and morans (learn to spell, MORON!) and you're the only person here that knows how to play poker. Your 1600 posts clearly indicates that.

Or perhaps it just means you can type....

I love this site. We can all read and respond to questions and thoughts that oftentimes have no resolution. Arguing about whether getting beat with 8-8 by two overcards is truly a "bad beat" is like trying to get everyone to agree on the BCS fiasco in college football. I hope there's never a resolution, because that wopuld ruin much of the fun. By the way, I agree that the pair is only about a 53% to 47% favorite -vs- two overcards, meaning in no way can this be called a bad beat.

KQ needs 2 cards to improve. If it hits one of its outs, it's still an underdog to aces. A pair of aces is better than a pair of kings or queens.

The lower the pocket pair, the better possibility that overcards will flop. Petriv's Holdem Odds Book has the odds of overcards hitting the flop for any pocket pair on page 99.

People with less than 50 posts shouldn't be allowed to post, theyr'e always so dumb.

If people with less than 50 posts aren't allowed to post, how will they ever get more than 50 posts?

What's your point?

Your problem is that you are reading crap like this. Read a 2+2 book and maybe you can understand my math, moran.

I recommend this one:
