P over P = 80/20, Any Ace over a P = 30/70 KJ over 99 = 47/53 or coin flip, A6 over K8 =60/40
But when someone says well I was 5.5 to 1 to win I'm like, ok whats that mean. I was discussing this with friends and a way for me to think over the easy ones was to quickly turn it into a percent but they told me my math was wrong. For example I always thought of totaling them to 100 to make my percent. 2/1 being like 66/33. If I'm 2/1 to win I have a 33% chance to win. Like a oesd is 32% or 2/1.
The big discussion with my friends I think was with a flush draw on the turn. I know a flush draw is 20% on the turn. So to reverse it I think it is 4 to 1 making 100. They told me 20% is 5 to 1 because you have a 1 in 5 chance of hitting it. But I always add the two together to get the total being 100%
Which one is correct? I could go rip open The Theory of poker but it's late right now and I need to go to bed.Statistics: Posted by Proplayer44 — Thu Sep 13, 2007 10:40 pm
