Default How do you calculate this?

Let's say you offer someone X:1 that the next hand they are dealt will be pocket Jacks, where X < what you would need to offer to make the proposition 0 EV. How do you calculate how many trials you would need to have a Y% chance of making a profit?

Thanks,
SpaceAce
