Title: Newbie advice please... Post by: Ston on February 18, 2006, 09:47:14 AM Hi,
I'm a complete novice and just getting into poker. Hope someone can shed some light for me on one of Dan Harringtons example in one of his books... Your hand: 5h 5s He explains some more of the hand, who folds etc, but its this bit I am having trouble with. Either I am getting confused with the terminology or am just plain stupid :) He says that "there are just nine pairs higher than your hand (this bit I get :) ) and six ways of drawing each pair, for a total of 54 possible hands." Its the last bit I don't understand, where does he get the 6 ways of drawing the pair? I make it 3 ways. Its probably very simple and I am missing something obviouse.
