    For the maths buffs out there.

    If the odds on flopping a set if you have a pocket pair are approx over 8 to 1. What are the odds of winning the hand in a 4 way pot agianst 3 other pocket pairs all in preflop. Obviously not 8 to 1.

    Your right very strange!!!

    Are you bottom pocket pair out of the four? Obviousley that changes the odds.

    All in preflop:

    55 % AA
    17 % KK
    15 % QQ
    13 % JJ

    odds will change depending on the pp, eg here AA has little chance of a straight

    Solksjaer, here you can type in what cards you have and what they have and find out your chances of winning. Eg. for a queen of hearts type in Qh, and put a space between each card.
