Wired set vs set?

[manku]

Question: What are the percentages, heads up, to win, for (A-A) A vs. (5-5) 5... eight or better?

Also, what are the odds of getting a low (ie. four consecutive, non pairing low cards) when dealt low trips?

Finally, when dealt three good low cards, say (A-5) 6, what are odds of completing low? Also, heads up, what are odds of beating say (A-A) 3?

Also, where is a good place to find such info?

Thanks.

PS. My chips are tasty!

[/ QUOTE ]For this one, try putting it against an all high hand like (KK)K on twodimes and look at the low win %.

Two Dimes is a good resource for this kind of information.

For high only, AAA is a .722/.278 favorite against 555. For stud/8, the numbers change only slightly to .714/.286.

Absent any other information, if you start with one low card, the chance of making a low are (28/49) * (24/48) * (20/47) * (16/46). I make this to be about 4.2%, or 22.8:1 against. A longshot, but hardly earth-shattering.

When you have a three-card low, the odds are about 2:1 against making an Eight-low by the river. AA3 is about a .645:.355 favorite against A56.

Kidbundles despises stud 8OB, and Manku knows this.

Indicator wrapper it ain't, that's for sure!

Huh?

[KidBundles]

Wrapper is an omaha variant that sees 8 cards straight across the community-- three on the flop, three on the turn, two on the river. At the end of the day, your hand is made by two cards out of your dealt cards and three contiguousr cards from the community, i.e. three cards in a row. But the community "wraps," i.e. you can use one card on one end and two on the others, etc., like a video game wrapping from left to right.

"indicator" refers to a card that comes with the turn that "indicates" what the low qualifier is-- sometimes played this way instead of declaring 8 or better for example.

Yes, I invented this.

Yes, I have too much time on my hands.

However, many Manku chips have come my way via "wrappage."

What about Ac2dAd vs. 5c5s5h in Stud8 or better?

You left out the fact that everyone gets dealt a fistful of hole cards rather than the non-standard 5 you play with in omaha 7/b.
