Message: [QUOTE="RammerJammer, post: 324702, member: 2090"] I see what you're saying, Grumble. The odds that you will be dealt EITHER KK, QQ, or JJ (3 possible combos) are 72.7 to 1. But the odds of being dealt EITHER TT, 99, 88, 77, or 66 (5 possible combos) are much better at 43.2 to 1. I was interpreting his table as saying that the odds of drawing Aces were much higher than drawing any other given pair, when in fact the odds of drawing any random pair is a constant at 16 to 1. If I follow you, then another way to phrase it would be that I should see, based upon probabilities, a pocket pair once in every 16 deals. I should see AA (or [I]ANY OTHER SPECIFIC[/I] pocket pair) once in every 220 deals. [/QUOTE]
