The odds of what exactly?

The odds of three players getting three pocket pairs or tens jacks and queens?

The odds of all three going all in?

The odds that once they're all in they all make their set by the river?

The odds that once they're all in that they make their sets on the third card of the flop, the turn and the river?

The odds that they make them in the specific order you described?

All of this GIVEN that they see the flop? The odds of them going all in and all of this?

They're all very different you know.

Now, what was your question?

To make trips in any order with any of the 5 cards?

More likely than the previous thread.

To make trips in any order but specifically with the last card of the flop, turn and the river?

Same as the previous thread.

To make trips in the sequence Tens, Jacks, Queens with any of the five cards?

Less likely than the previous thread.

To make trips in the sequence Tens, Jacks, Queens with the three specific board cards?

Way less likely than the previous thread.

Here's the previous thread:

I now, graciously, give up.

Another odds question. What are the odds of two players being dealt the same pocket pair? Happened me in the fitz on Saturday. Two of us got Queens and were all in Preflop against AJ
