Default This guy can\'t do basic math (Chat convo)

Background: Hero sucks out with A9.

HERO: "i play goot"
VILLIAN: "raising utg with a9"
VILLIAN: "lol"

HERO: "you bet"

VILLIAN: "huh"
HERO: "whatch what i call with here"
VILLIAN: "alright"

VILLIAN: "keep raising utg with a9--lol"

HERO: "it's winning poker"

VILLIAN: "yeah highly recommended strategy"
MR X.: "lol"

HERO: "i won right??"

VILLIAN: "and then catch runnrunner--i wish i could do that"
HERO: "therefore"
HERO: "HERO = winner =awesomesauce"
jvr06: folds
VILLIAN: "therefore you got lucky and caught runnerrunner"
HERO: "and outplayed EVERBODY!!"

VILLIAN: "catching turn and river 9 was outplaying--i c"
HERO: "yup"

HERO: "game of skill dude"

HERO: "and i won"

VILLIAN: "i wish i had the skill to turn and river a winner like that"

HERO: "my hand was best, stop *****ing"

HERO: "you're a sore loser"
VILLIAN: "im fine"

VILLIAN: "im just laughing that you are trying to talk like you played it so good"

HERO: "what's wrong with A9?"
VILLIAN: "you got lucky as hell against joffe"
HERO: "its like the 4th best hand"

VILLIAN: "so dont talk **** like you played good on that hand--you played it pretty poorly and got bailed out on 4 and 5"
HERO: "no ace beats jack"

VILLIAN: "he had 2 jacks moron"
HERO: "i'm like 1-1 to hit with 5card to come"
VILLIAN: "what"
HERO: "to hit an ace"
VILLIAN: "uh no"

HERO: "5 cards 4 aces"

HERO: "20% each card"

VILLIAN: "lol"

HERO: "= 1 to 1"

VILLIAN: "uh that is not how you do the math man"

HERO: "you flunk math???"

VILLIAN: "if that were the case ace 2 would be even money with all pocket pairs"

HERO: "I got an A in highschool so stfu"
VILLIAN: "ace 2 is not even money against kings--explain that"

HERO: "yes it is"

VILLIAN: "alright im done talking to you--i have no idea what the phuck you are saying even"
HERO: "that's why A9 is the fourth best hand"

HERO: "you're an idiot"

VILLIAN: "clearly"

HERO: "pick up a math book geez"

VILLIAN: "so let me get this right--if there was 3 dollars in dead money int eh pot and you knew for sure that a guy had kings--you would call a 50 dollar all in with ace 2"

HERO: "why would he go in with $3 in the pot??"

VILLIAN: "hypothetically"

VILLIAN: "he just decided to shove it in"

VILLIAN: "you would call it right since you would be even money to win and there was dead money in"

HERO: "that's like flipping a coin for $100 it's stupid"
VILLIAN: "and there isnt even close to a 20% chance of catching an ace on each card"

HERO: "how many aces are there?"
VILLIAN: "on each card it is 47-4"
HERO: "FOUR!!!"

VILLIAN: "so it is over 11-1 each card"

HERO: "**** you are dumb"

VILLIAN: "which is about 9 percent"

VILLIAN: "and you cant just add up those percentages to get a total"

HERO: "wtf are you talking about??"

VILLIAN: "wtf are you talking about"

HERO: "there is 4 Aces"

VILLIAN: "and 47 cards that arent aces"
HERO: "so 1/4"
HERO: "= 20%"

VILLIAN: "so 47 dont help 4 do"

HERO: "what?"

VILLIAN: "so 11 to 1"

HERO: "what are you talking about?"

MR X.: "lol"

HERO: "1/4 = 20%, I can't make it any simplier"

VILLIAN: "either you are phucking around or you are a complete moron"

VILLIAN: "how do you get 1 in 4"
HERO: "no wonder i am winning"

VILLIAN: "there are 52 in the deck"

HERO: "4 ****ing aces"

HERO: "i'm done with this lame conversation"

VILLIAN: "so preflop there are 48 cards that arent aces and 3 left that are"

VILLIAN: "so it is 48 to 3"

VILLIAN: "not 4 to 1"

HERO: "i told you i am done"

VILLIAN: "according to your math an ace would fall if all five cards were seen every single time"

VILLIAN: "im amazed that you do make money now that we had this conversation"

HERO: "that doesn't make any sense"

VILLIAN: "according to you there is a 20 percent chance of an ace on each card and you just add the percentages so you get a 100 percent chance"

HERO: "**** i said i was done"

HERO: "you don''t get it"
ra
VILLIAN: "no i dont"
HERO: "and you never will"

HERO: "apparently"

VILLIAN: "and i dont think anyone else in their right mind would iether"

VILLIAN: "there is not a 1/4 chance to catch an ace on each trun of the card"
HERO: "omg"

HERO: "shut up"

MR X.: "loooooool"

HERO: "mr x thinks you are funny too"

VILLIAN: "think about it there are 50 cards other than the ones in your hand--47 are not aces while 3 are--how in the phuck does that equal 1 out of 4"

MR X.: "that was also funny"

HERO: "dude, i am not even reading your message anymore"

OP, there are only 3 aces left (you have on in your hand) so its 1/3 not 1/4, which is about 75% or 3/4. I think you need A10s or better to be even money vs Js. If you add in all the times you flop 99X or the straight your hand can make, 5678x,67810X etc. it becomes quite close.

In the VILLIAN: "so let me get this right--if there was 3 dollars in dead money int eh pot and you knew for sure that a guy had kings--you would call a 50 dollar all in with ace 2", example there is $3 in the pot when he puts $50 in so its $50 to win $53, not a coinflip. You would really have to hate money not to call here.
