45 cards left in deck 10 of which are hearts therefore chance of heart on turn is 45/10
then providing the turn is a heart there are 44 cards left in deck of which 9 are hearts therefore chance of heart on river is 44/9
chance of both being hearts is (45/10)x(44/9) = 22 or 21/1
thats in the jungle anyway
They only have 50 cards in these jungle packs? Would have thought 47 (52-5) maybe i'm daft and missing something?
changing the 45/44 to 47/46 gives 24/1.
52 - minus 3 cards for the flop, minus 4 cards for the players hole cards.
I'd love to play in the games you do Floppy, where your opponent's cards are known to you.

Not that daft.
Just if you are looking at the odds you can't dicount the other hole cards. where in the question did it state it was HU if it is a table of 10 do we base it on 29 cards?
ohhh sorry i forgot to add that, yes it was a full 10 seater table

ok, so you are playing heads up and you bluff all in on the flop, your opponent calls and so the cards are turned over and you can see your opponent is holding
.
now my answer is correct

...on a wet afternoon the Tuesday after there has been racing at Haydock on Saturday.
Unless the other players turn over their cards and show you what they have it has no effect on the calculation - an unknown card is an unknown card, whether it is in the muck or in the deck.

I'm betting the guy who finished 18th in the WSOP main event will win this bet, especially v a total fish........

totalise is right 23/1
my calculations are simpler - as I am simple person-
on the turn 10/47, on the river 9/46 multiply it and - roughly 4.2% = 23/1

For someone with your obvious personality disfunctions, this is totally predictable.

Erm, you seem to confident that he is wrong, the question is then, were you right fish?

Actually, because of the way the question was originally phrased, the zero was correct at the time.

when holding
?"
