Title: Stats help Post by: JoeStrummer on May 11, 2006, 08:23:06 AM Ok, a quick one..... And i should probably know this one anyway.
If holding AK in a ten handed table (or even AQ and AJ) what are the chances of running into AA? The reason behind this question is that during playing yesterday I saw AK up against AA on six different occassions, which to me seems(?) very high. Thanks in advance.

However, you have one of the Aces, which means the chances of one of your opponents having Aces is reduced to 440/1 (now only 3 ways AA can be constructed instead of 6 before). If you have nine opponents, then the chances of any one of them having Aces is 440/9, or about 49/1. Of course, when you're holding AK, this chance drops to about even money...

Only online - but then the AK will beat the AA 48% of the time and 23% of the time both players split with the nut straight...........
