I call it the luck factor. I don’t know what computer people call it. (maybe variance?).
The truth is, having a deuce and trey suited is really slightly worse than having a deuce and jack suited, despite the enhanced possibility of a straight flush.
If you change the suits, the simulator will run a fresh simulation for you.
Focus on the low ties in the sample simulations below. Seems like the low ties should be the same for each simulation. Yet:
109,413
108,867
108,910
109,725
Well... they are approximately the same in each 600,000 run simulation... but not exactly. And that’s the way simulations are, just approximations, but close enough.
