Hi I have a probability question. And it can be related to Poker (cause thats what I need it for =). My question is ...

I have 1100 chips and my opponent has 1900 chips. We are all-in and my odds of winning the pot (doubling up) was 81%. I win.

In the same game, my opponent has 750 chips left and I have 2250 chips. We are all-in again and I am 67% to take the rest of his chips. BUT instead, HE wins and doubles up thereby we now have 1500 chips each.

We go all-in again and I am 61% to win and I do and I win the tournament. The question is ... WHAT WERE MY OVERALL ODDS OF WINNING THAT GAME? I was 81% to double up then I was 67% to win the game (but lost), then I was 61% to win the game (and won).

What is the equation you use to figure this out?? Would there be any variation if the stack sizes above were different? (Supposing I had 1400 chips on the last all-in and won and he was left with 200 chips, how would that affect the outcome?).

Thanks so much for info !!!!!

I don't understand how to work the following out. Could someone please give me either a formula or process for calculating these concentrations. I don't necessarily want the answers because I won't learn anything that way, but I don't understand how to figure it out!


You have a solution containing 13.6 mg/ml of the protein Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA). Molar weight of BSA is 68, 000 Da (Daltons).

What is the concentration of this solution in:

________g/L (grams/liter)
________M (moles)
________mM (millimoles)
________uM (micromoles)

How many millimoles of BSA are present in 1ml of this solution?

I mean in experienced hands that is.. from what I have experienced I think there is a definite link between the two. I think dominant dogs tend to be far more intelligent AND trainable than submissive dogs... not to say there isnt exceptions to that rule. But I have found in general it holds true.. What do you think?

I think in inexperienced hands there could be problems but if you know what you are doing it seems they learn so much faster and are so much quicker on the uptake, than more docile submissive dogs.

I am a vegetarian... I think. I don't eat any meat. I only eat some fish like tuna, sardines and salmon once in a while. I heard a lot of stuff about the dangers of mercury in tuna. but If I decide to go vegan, where would I get Omega-3 from? Thanks.

At the weekend we had a bbq for the kids, eveyone who came brought something for it. The day before one of my daughter's friends who had been intivted came in and said her dad ask if he could come. This man is a bit of a know it all and isn't liked by may people, and one of our close friends really hates him. We didn't really want him to come so we told him it was for the kids only but then he spied on us and his wife came around the bak of our house and called as names in front of all our friends, also shouted at our 10 year old daughter(who is the friend of her daughter). After that they daughter and all her friends kept coming around where we live and being really nasty to our daughter and making her upset. What would you do? They are not the kind people you can talk to. Do you think I was wrong not to say they could come. The other thing is they are ponces and wouldn't of brought anything with them like everyone else.

Basic English is a constructed language with a small number of words created by Charles Kay Ogden and described in his book Basic English: A General Introduction with Rules and Grammar (1930). The language is based on a simplified version of English, in essence a subset of it.Ogden said that it would take seven weeks for Basic English to learn .Ogden did not put any words into Basic English that could be paraphrased with other words, and he strove to make the words work for speakers of any other language.He put his set of words through a large number of tests and adjustments. He also simplified the grammar but tried to keep it normal for English users.

Has anyone else noticed this. Railway tracks are perhaps a metre or so wide. However, the inside of trains, which appears, from the outside at least, not much wider than the tracks, has a (semi-comfortable) bearth of 5 people and a corridor. What is going on?

i am in love with the father of my 15 month old daughter. during my pregnancy i broke up wiht him, and he went back to his old girlfriend. he tells me when he is drinking that he loves me and wants to be with me and our baby. he comes to see her every month or so, he lives about 3 hour away. so i am seeing this other guy and i really am not in lve with him but i think if i give it time i could be, maybe. what do i do? trying to be with my daughter's father would mean breaking up a relationship. being with this other guy feels like setteling, but i have tried a few times to get rid of him and he is very insistant and loves me and blah blah lha. i need a little advice, than you.

Dear friends kindly help me to take a decision since I m very confused. One of my very old colleque hes after me for the last two weeks.

He wants me to start Multi Level Marketing business. He got me registered at www.tnportal.com after paying 10$ and now he wants me to do shopping there so that he will be paid 50$ as commision and in the same way when I introduce somebody and convice him to do shopping at the same website I will be paid 50$ commision and so on.

The only thing I have to do is to spare 1-2 hours everyday to attend the presentations and to learn how to do the marketing ?

Kindly let me know is it OK ?
I would appreciate if somebody has already gone through this Multi Level Marketing and wants to share his experience with me.
Thanking you in advance.
