Some important stats from my poker simulator; 500,000 rounds of Texas Holdem ran 6 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 | 17.4168 | 0.05234 |
| Pair | 43.8186 | 16.1444 |
| Two Pair | 23.4833 | 30.4889 |
| Set | 4.83217 | 13.8994 |
| Straight | 4.62432 | 16.5955 |
| Flush | 3.03516 | 10.8549 |
| Full House | 2.59857 | 10.9392 |
| Quads | 0.167663 | 0.89008 |
| Straight Flush | 0.0209667 | 0.12094 |
| Royal Flush | 0.00243333 | 0.01436 |
The above stats are very interesting and should be memorized but they can be a little
misleading. For example only 10% of the hands are won by a flush, but that does not means if there is 3 flush cards on the board that only 10% 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 | 39.0846 |
| Straight when three continuous on board | 28.8715 |
| Straight when four continuous on board | 34.5207 |
| Flush when three suited on board | 49.0884 |
| Flush when four suited on board | 225.451 |
| Full House when pair on board | 16.9289 |
| Full House when set on board | 200.045 |
| Full House when two pair on board | 99.4457 |
| Quads when pair on board | 0.650879 |
| Quads when set on board | 25.612 |
Given the above example you can see that in a 6 handed Texas Holdem game if there is 3 suited cards on the board then it is not 10% chance that someone has a flush but a much higher 49%.
Hope these stats help you guys destroy the poker tables.
