aliensyndm Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 OK blatently stole this question but it's quite interesting... It's the WSOP main event, first hand, and you're all in with AsAc against 3 other players. Crazy I know. But if you could pick out exactly what holecards they each had, what would you pick to make you the biggest % favourite? You can use Cardplayer's odds calculator to help you - Best anyone has managed so far is 95.9 % or 96% (it fluctuates between the 2) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aliensyndm Posted February 7, 2005 Author Share Posted February 7, 2005 Re: Choose wisely ! Prepare to dine ! Have a think, with those hands it leaves 2 queens, 2 jacks and 2 kings which could bust the aces. As well as possible str8s and red 4 flush boards.

Norfolk Enchance Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 Re: Choose wisely ! Managed just over 90% giving two of the players a pair of 2s, but struggling to work out how to get 96% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
