Review of poker hand probability calculator::How to Work Out a Bet? - What's Your Question?








If               you               have               a               pocket               pair               of               either               sixes               or               kings               and               the               only               other               player               to               call               has               pocket               Aces,               which               pocket               pair               are               you               better               off               having               based               on               probability               percentages               of               winning?

Most               people               would               intuitively               say               pocket               kings               are               better.

Intuition               is               incorrect               in               this               case.

This               is               both               a               very               hard               question               and               a               very               easy               one.

It               is               an               easy               question               because               your               odds               are               very               poor               with               either               pair.

It               is               a               difficult               question               because               it               is               2%               worse               if               you               have               a               pair               of               kings               than               a               pair               of               sixes               against               the               pocket               aces.
               Before               I               go               into               the               analysis               of               this               hand               let               me               first               say               it               is               much               worse               to               have               pocket               kings               against               pocket               aces               because               you               are               much               more               likely               to               make               a               large               call               or               bet,               even               all               in               bet,               with               kings               than               sixes,               which               will               usually               be               folded               against               a               large               bet               or               raise.

Theoretically               these               two               hands               can               fall               at               endgame               with               two               head               up               players               left.

In               this               case               even               the               pocket               sixes               may               make               an               all               in               bet               since               any               pair               heads               up               is               generally               a               winner.
               If               you               have               two               kings               you               must               draw               a               third               king               without               the               aces               drawing               a               third               ace               in               order               to               win.

If               a               four               flush               is               unfolded               on               the               board               the               aces               will               beat               both               sixes               and               kings               if               the               hold               cards               of               both               players               match               the               suit               of               the               four               flush.

If               neither               player               matches               the               4               flush               the               point               is               moot,               with               the               improbable               exception               that               a               5               flush               on               board               will               unfold               to               tie               the               game.

Otherwise               the               single               player               matching               the               4               flush               will               win.
               The               reason               it               is               2%               better               to               have               sixes               rather               than               kings               has               to               do               with               the               possibility               of               a               straight               draw.

The               king               pair               limits               the               odds               of               the               aces               drawing               a               straight               since               a               king               fall               for               an               ace               high               straight               is               diminished               by               50%.

Likewise,               the               kings               draw               for               an               open               ended               straight               is               diminished               by               25%               since               two               aces               are               already               out               of               play               for               that               hand.
               In               real               time               play               the               odds               of               any               pocket               pair               winning               against               aces               is               small               before               the               flop,               about               1               in               5.

The               2%               advantage               due               to               a               straight               draw               is               small               and               more               of               an               intellectual               exercise               than               a               real               time               consideration.

You               are               more               likely               to               make               money               on               this               tidbit               of               information               as               a               side               bet               rather               than               a               difference               of               tactical               play.
               If               you               would               like               to               find               the               odds               of               any               two               to               six               combinations               of               hands               in               Texas               Hold'em               poker,               feel               free               to               use               the               free               poker               odds               calculator               at               the               World               Poker               Tour               home               page               at               worldpokertour.com.

    Review of poker hands statistics::How to Win at Online Poker







    Review of poker hands statistics::How to Win at Online Poker








                   On               the               first               episode               of               Season               13               of               "The               Biggest               Loser,"               one               pair               didn't               even               get               into               the               gate,               and               the               rest               of               the               pairs               were               divided               between               Bob               and               Dolvett.

    Dolvett               finally               beat               Bob               at               the               weigh               in,               as               his               trainee               Buddy               pulled               it               out               in               the               end               with               a               22-pound               weight               loss.

    Unlike               the               first               week               of               most               seasons               of               the               show,               the               contestants,               except               Buddy,               yielded               low               weight-loss               numbers.

    Ben,               a               member               of               Bob's               team,               volunteered               to               go               home               to               be               with               his               children               and               wife,               who               is               expecting               a               new               baby.

    This               week,               team               leaders               bet               on               the               fate               of               their               team.
                   "The               Biggest               Loser"               opened               with               Alison               visiting               the               contestants,               updating               them               on               the               week's               challenge.

    The               player               with               the               highest               percentage               of               weight               loss               at               the               weigh               in               could               give               immunity               to               someone               on               the               other               team.

    Of               course,               family               dominated               their               minds.

    She               also               asked               for               two               team               leaders               from               each               team.

    Emily               from               the               Black               Team               and               Kim               N.

    from               the               Red               Team               were               the               first               to               volunteer.

    Black               Team               member               Joe               and               Red               Team               member               Kim               S.

    (Kimmie)               raised               their               hands.
                   The               team               leaders               followed               Alison               to               a               table               with               poker               chips.

    They               had               the               chance               to               give               their               teammates               a               five-pound               advantage               at               the               weigh               in.

    Each               team               had               to               bid               on               what               they               thought               their               team's               percentage               of               weight               loss               would               be.

    The               chips               represented               a               tenth               of               a               percentage.

    If               they               guessed               the               right               percentage,               they'd               keep               the               advantage               for               their               team.

    If               they               didn't               bid               correctly,               the               other               team               got               the               advantage.
                   Red               Team               leaders               bid               3.8               percent,               or               94               pounds.

    Black               Team               leaders               folded,               not               even               raising               the               percentage.

    Alison               told               them               the               average               percentage               of               weight               loss               on               the               second               week               is               two               percent.

    The               four               leaders               left               the               room               and               informed               their               teammates               of               what               happened.

    The               Red               Team               had               all               the               pressure               on               their               shoulders.

    Dolvett               was               not               thrilled               with               their               bid.

    He               immediately               brought               them               to               the               gym.

    He               particularly               focused               on               the               two               Kims.

    Bob               doubted               the               Red               Team's               ability               to               lose               94               pounds               but               worked               them               hard               anyway.
                   Dr.

    H               visited               come               the               contestants,               focusing               his               attention               on               brothers               Joe               and               Mike.

    Though               they               live               3,000               miles               apart,               they               had               similar               weights               coming               to               the               ranch.

    Their               dad               also               shared               the               same               body               type               and               weight.

    Joe               had               severe               sleep               apnea,               a               risk               for               diabetes               and               high               blood               pressure.

    Mike               learned               his               bad               habits               from               his               dad,               gaining               50               pounds               at               12               years               old.

    He               also               began               smoking               cigarettes               at               12.

    Mike               stopped               smoking               cigarettes               but               started               using               smokeless               tobaccos.
                   The               red               team,               knowing               the               task               before               them,               wrote               down               all               of               their               calories,               hoping               that               the               extra               measures               would               pay               off               at               the               weigh               in.

    "The               Biggest               Loser"               nutritionist               Rachel               Beller               walked               into               the               kitchen               to               give               them               a               lesson               on               what               to               eat               and               when               to               eat               foods               containing               certain               nutrients.

    She               took               them               on               a               field               trip               to               the               grocery               store.
                   Rachel               compared               the               grocery               basket               to               an               empty               stomach               that               you               need               to               fill.

    A               good               suggestion               that               Rachel               gave               was               flipping               the               plate,               eating               a               traditional               main               dish               as               the               side               dish.

    Mike               compared               the               ranch               to               Betty               Ford.

    Rachel               even               went               to               Chicago               to               visit               the               aqua               team               -               siblings               Adrian               &               Daphne               -               to               help               them               learn               how               to               shop               and               cook               healthy               foods.
                   Alison               met               the               contestants               on               the               ocean               for               their               first               team               challenge.

    The               winner               of               the               challenge               won               "The               Biggest               Loser"               meals               for               six               months.

    The               teams               had               to               pull               an               anchor               in               with               24               pieces               needed               to               solve               a               puzzle.

    The               teams               were               close               throughout               the               entire               challenge.

    The               Black               Team               edged               out               the               Red               Team,               winning               by               a               few               seconds.
                   The               last-chance               workout               was               tension               filled.

    Bob               thought               Dolvett               used               his               moves               with               the               Red               Team               (a               little               petty               don't               you               think).

    Hate               to               say               it,               but               Bob               Harper               doesn't               hold               the               patent               on               different               exercise               moves.

    Bob               took               his               frustration               out               on               the               Black               Team.

    Red               Team               member               Mike               didn't               work               as               hard               as               the               rest               of               his               teammates.

    It               was               sad,               especially               after               getting               news               from               the               doctor               about               the               poor               state               of               his               health.

    Dolvett               had               a               private               conversation               with               Mike.
                   At               the               weigh               in,               the               Red               Team               didn't               win               the               five-pound               advantage.

    They               lost               only               52               pounds               (they               needed               94)               and               had               a               2.8               percentage               of               weight               loss,               close               to               the               second-week               average               on               the               show.

    The               Black               Team               had               the               advantage               and               needed               to               lose               more               than               48               pounds               to               avoid               the               elimination               room.

    The               Black               Team               was               safe               from               elimination               thanks               to               the               five-pound               advantage.
                   Mark               had               the               highest               percentage               of               weight               loss               one               the               Red               Team.

    Chris               had               the               highest               percentage               of               weight               loss               on               the               Black               Team,               so               she               could               save               one               Red               Team               member.

    Of               course,               she               picked               her               husband               Roy.

    It               didn't               surprise               me               that               Mike,               who               has               not               had               a               good               relationship               with               his               teammates               from               the               beginning,               was               voted               off.
                   Mike               finally               acknowledged               how               he               acted               with               his               team,               although               too               late               to               save               him.

    At               home,               he               weighed               302               pounds,               losing               a               total               of               56               pounds.

    He               realized               that               anger               was               the               root               of               his               problems               in               life               and               on               the               ranch.

    He               now               uses               boxing               to               release               frustration.

    He               still               fights               nicotine               addiction.
                   The               theme               of               this               season               of               "The               Biggest               Loser"               is               "No               Excuses."               This               week,               though,               Mike               made               a               lot               of               them.

    I               think               he               finally               realized               that               it's               not               just               that               people               don't               like               him;               he               does               things,               either               consciously               or               subconsciously,               to               drive               people               away.

    It               took               being               eliminated               to               finally               acknowledge               that               the               problem               lies               within               him.

    As               the               weeks               progress,               we               will               likely               peel               away               more               excuses.

    Sounds               as               simple               and               straightforward,               and               the               interface               is               beautifully               done.

    The               online               mode,               badges,               and               generally               fluid               gameplay               makes               this               a               truly               addictive               title.

    Given               the               turn-based,               at-your-leisure               nature               of               Video               Poker,               this               is               more               annoyance               than               actual               hassle.
                   Final               Judgment:               A               simple,               classic               game               improved               upon               with               features               that               add               a               whole               new               dimension               to               the               experience.

    Yet               another               example               of               the               iPhone's               capabilities               being               used               splendidly               by               a               solid               developer.
