There is a 2.5% chance he has a straight. Then using the rule of 2 we multiply that to get 5%, and using the rule of 4 we multiply it to get 10%, then by using these two figures as percentage chances along a continuum like this:
Its important to note that Negreanu's straight doesnt lie exactly at 7.5%. This model should merely be used as a graphic illustration. In reality, much like an electron, we can never know exactly where Negreanu's straight lies, and the process of observing it makes it change position.
