And after calling preflop I recommend making a bet. In unlimited hold them, making bets when you are confident you have the best holding helps you win money.

With 2 non-pair cards, the probability of flopping Quads (using one of your pocket cards) from two non-pair cards - 9799/1

The probability of flopping Quads without using one of your pocket cards is even worse.
