    Default Odds Question

    I must apologize first because I'm sure someone has posted this previously, but I can't find it.

    Let me give the hand history so my question will make more sense first.

    I limp with 55. Board comes 5-x-x with 3 hearts. I bet, guy raises. I'm almost sure he has the flush. What are the odds that the board pairs so give me the boat?

    ok, I hope I'm right..

    There's 47 cards unseen and 7 of them will pair the board or give you quads.. so.. (40/47) * (36/46) = 66.6% chance of you not making a hand better than a flush.

    This is assuming the turn doesn't hit it, adding 3 more outs on the river there's a 33% chance of making the better hand.

    I'm probably wrong but I tried.
