Crying

Does anyone know the odds of him catching two cards like that after being so ridiculously crushed on the flop?

The odds of running cards of a particular index when there only three left in the deck is somewhere around 0.3%... I should know. Sad

Mar 9 07:59:16] : Seat 3 : Ewi has Ah 2d Jh Qd
Mar 9 07:59:16 : Seat 6 : mckay85 has 3s Ks Kc 5c
Mar 9 07:59:16 : Seat 8 : wisien286 has Jc 2s Ad 8d

Wisien286 had 8 outs to hit 2 pair on the turn (9 if we ignore the 2 in your hand) and then 2 outs to fill up on the river without you making a bigger boat.

(9/45)*(2/44) =
(0.2)*(0.045) =
0.9%

If we take into account Mckay85's hand as well as yours the numbers become:

(8/37)*(1.67/36) =
(0.216)*(0.046) =
1%

So the chances aren't that great.
