Just wanted to leave this food for thought here to help you all out as you play/study
. Add anything else interesting to talk about if you think of it!
I think that the hand chart is quite intimidating to read, so I put some thought into it.
It's a 13x13 square which means there are 169 squares total. Pairs consist of 13 squares, suited hands consist of 78 squares, and unsuited hands consist of 78 squares (13 + 78 + 78 = 169).
There are 1326 total possible combinations of hands:
- (22-AA)13 x 6 = 78 combos of each pair.
- 4 (combos of suited hands for a specific suited hand) x 78 (suited hands of each suit) = 312 suited combo's of hands
that leaves the rest (combos of unsuited hands for a specific unsuited hand)12 x 78 (unsuited hands of each suit) = 936 combos. That means there are 234 combos of unsuited hands with a certain suit as the first card.
Some questions I asked myself:
How does a flop with 2 cards of the same suit affect how many flush combos are left of that suit?
How does removing 1 card affect the total amount of combos possible? 2 cards? a whole suit of cards?
