Some important stats from my poker simulator; 500,000 rounds of Texas Holdem ran 4 handed all the way to the river. This chart gives you a good idea of the frequency of each rank of hand coming up and its % chance to be winning at show down.
| Hand type | % of hands | % of rounds won |
|---|---|---|
| High | 17.4246 | 0.62746 |
| Pair | 43.8315 | 24.1368 |
| Two Pair | 23.5011 | 33.7857 |
| Set | 4.82032 | 11.0415 |
| Straight | 4.61496 | 13.0688 |
| Flush | 3.0292 | 8.5155 |
| Full House | 2.58927 | 8.1439 |
| Quads | 0.165575 | 0.58964 |
| Straight Flush | 0.020625 | 0.07962 |
| Royal Flush | 0.00282 | 0.01114 |
The above stats are very interesting and should be memorized but they can be a little
misleading. For example only 8.5% of the hands are won by a flush, but that does not means if there is 3 flush cards on the board that only 8.5% of the time someone will have one. A poker player really also wants to know that given that the condition for a flush is meet what is the chance that someone at the table has that hand.
| Hand given the Condition | % Hand |
|---|---|
| Set when pair on board | 26.0416 |
| Straight when 3 continuous on board | 19.2066 |
| Straight when 4 continuous on board | 22.9567 |
| Flush when 3 suited on board | 32.6617 |
| Flush when 4 suited on board | 150.16 |
| Full House when pair on board | 11.2366 |
| Full House when set on board | 133.603 |
| Full House when 2 pair on board | 66.3106 |
| Quads when pair on board | 0.417455 |
| Quads when set on board | 16.9198 |
Given the above example you can see that in a 4 handed Texas Holdem game if there is 3 suited cards on the board then it is not 8.5% chance that someone has a flush but a much higher 32%.
Hope these stats help you guys survive at the poker tables.
