The algorithm is a numerical approach to quantify the strength of a poker hand where its result expresses the strength of a particular hand in percentile (i.e. ranging from 0 to 1), compared to all other possible hands.
The Probability of drawing a given hand is calculated by dividing the number of ways of drawing the hand (Frequency) by the total number of 5-card hands (the sample space; () =,,). For example, there are 4 different ways to draw a royal flush (one for each suit), so the probability is 4 / 2,598,960 , or one in 649,740.
A hand pattern denotes the distribution of the thirteen cards in a hand over the four suits. In total 39 hand patterns are possible, but only 13 of them have an a priori probability exceeding 1%. The most likely pattern is the 4-4-3-2 pattern consisting of two four-card suits, a three-card suit and a doubleton.
There are some cases, though, where keeping a card in your hand might be a good strategy (e.g. racking up for a bigger BAM later in the duel). How can we make best use of our friends in-game? Duel ...
W E ♠ K 10 3 ♥ A Q ♥ K J 9 4 ♦ K Q 3 2 ♦ A J ♣ A 4 3 ♣ 8 7 6 5 ♠ A Q J W E ♠ K 10 3 ♥ A Q 3 2 ♥ K J 9 4 ♦ K Q ♦ A J ♣ A 4 3 2 ♣ 8 7 6 5 Both East hands are exactly the same, and both West hands have the same shape, the same HCP count, and the same high cards. The only difference between the West hands is that two low red cards and one low black card have been ...
Poker calculators are algorithms which through probabilistic or statistical means derive a player's chance of winning, losing, or tying a poker hand. [1] [2]Given the complexities of poker and the constantly changing rules, most poker calculators are statistical machines, probabilities and card counting is rarely used.
The underlying premise of LTC is that if a suit is evenly distributed, i.e. three players hold three cards in the suit and one player holds four, a maximum of three losers can be assumed in any one suit held by the partnership and, in turn, the maximum number of losers held by the partnership in all four suits is 24 (three in each of the four suits in each of two hands, i.e. 3 x 4 x 2 = 24).
Once adjustments have been made, an opening hand requires 26 ZP and a responding hand needs 16 ZP; a major suit game requires 52 ZP, a small slam requires 62 ZP and a grand slam requires 67. Bidding levels are five points apart yielding: Two level – 42 i.e. 26 + 16 Three level – 47 Four level – 52 Five level – 57 Six level – 62
