How are the percentages of possible victory caculated in Texas Hold 'Em?

Answer 1

To determine this you need to know how many outs you have. An out is a card that will make a winning hand. The math behind this is as follows for catching your card after the flop and by the river. (2 cards to come)

1- {(47-#outs)/ 47 * (46- #outs)/46}

Example of a 21 out draw (21 outs is very high amount of outs)

1 - {(47-21) / 47 * (46 - 21) / 46}
= 1 - {(26 /47 ) * (25 / 46)}
= 1 - {.55319 * .54347}
= 1 - .30064
= .69936 chance of winning the hand
An easier way is to use the rule of 2 and 4 which is
#outs x 2 = chance of winning after the turn (catching the river card)

#outs x 4 = chance of winning after the flop and catching a card on the turn and river combined

The rule of 2 and 4 are only close approx. Good Luck

Answer 2

They are calculated by determining the cards remaining in the deck.

For example if you are playing against someone and the river is the only card left...

There are 44 cards remaining that can be turned up.

Let's just assume that 18 of them would result in your opponent winning and 26 would result in you winning.

Their chance of winning is 18/44 or 41%
Your chance of winning is 26/44 or 59%

I hope that helps!

Answer 3

Playing the person rather than playing the odds helps more and in most cases results in more wins.

Answer 4

there is no answer to this....you have to learn the rules of the game...every card dealt and every bet made and every fold changes the percentages.....it is different every time

Answer 5

You would need to get a book to teach you. They also have lesson of FSN

Answer 6

too technical to even think of. besides its mostly the luck of the draw...
