    Get real!! why will i get dealt 77 3.6% of the time and AA 0.5% of the time? The odds for any pocket pair are exactly the same = 4/52 (1/13) for the first card and 3/51 (1/17) for the second, = 13*17 = 221/1 for ANY pocket pair, the odds of being dealt an Ace of a Seven as your first card are exactly the same 4 in 52.

    God only knows how this chart was devised!!

    The %s are progressive. E.g you will get dealt AA 0.5% of the time,
    you will get dealt a pair 77 or higher 3.6% of the time.

    Of course he is ranking 77 as a better hand than AKs - interesting.

    looks like a load of bull - so you are saying that I will be dealt 32o 98.9% of the time? I could have sworn that I have been dealt other cards?

    Also i thought that you would have the same % chance of getting any card

    77 is better, HU of course.... but not by much... but if you look at equity...... and why does this apply only to MTT NL? Maybe using this will help my ROI.

    Oh yeah, banned for stupid spam.
    Marm is back, maybe. Been off for 3 years. Rusty as Hell.

    Luck is a Residue of Design.
