We're back again with a lightning fast tool that lets you calculate the odds in poker.
With our Poker Odds Calculator you can set up different poker scenarios and then with a
push of a button, calculate the probability. Try calculating the poker hand odds or
check our step-by-step guide on how to use the Poker Odds Calculator down below. If
you're looking for a tool to find out which poker hand wins in any pot, check out our
Which Poker Hand Wins Calculator .
How to Use the Poker Odds Calculator
Pick the poker
variation you're playing in the top drop-down menu and the number of players in the
hand (you can add in up to five players). Odds are available for: Texas Holdem, Omaha,
Omaha Hi-Lo, 7-Card Stud, 7-Card Stud Hi-Lo and Razz.
To enter each player's hand,
click on the respective suit in the center of the wheel and then the desired value of
the card. For example: If you want the King of Diamonds in Player 1's hand, click on
the Diamond, then the K. Repeat for each card in each player's pre-flop hand.
Once
those are set proceed in the same manner to fill in the flop and turn cards. When all
the cards are entered properly click "Get Odds" and you'll see exactly what each
player's odds are to win, tie or lose the hand at that moment. Repeat as needed! (Click
the reset button to clear the current hands/odds.)
Poker Hand Odds Charts
Below find a
couple helpful poker hand odds charts for some very common probabilities and scenarios
you'll come across at the poker table.
The chart on the left walks you through your %
chance of improvement on the flop and turn with some common made hands or draws. The
chart on the right explains which hand is more likely to win in some common hand v.
hand scenarios.
Play poker often enough and these percentages/ratios will become second
nature and you'll more than likely not even need to look at these charts anymore!
For
an in-depth look at your poker hand odds pre-flop and in several very common poker hand
scenarios, see our Beginners Equity Guide to Standard Situations in No-Limit

What Is a "Flip"
If you've watched or played poker for any length of
time you'll be well familiar with the term "coin flip." If you're an amateur player and
wondering why there's so much talk of it it's because it's a very, very common
situation in poker tournaments big and small.
Two players are all in pre-flop, hands on
their backs. As you might have guess, both hands are basically even odds to win - ie
50/50, or that of a coin flip.
The most common "flip" situation you'll see (or more
likely be in) is the classic pair vs. two overcards. Eg AK vs 99 or AJ vs 77. This
works for any pair and overcards (even 22 vs 34, for example).
Truthfully the odds
aren't *exactly* 50/50 in these scenarios but they are close enough that they are
considered a coin flip. The "made" hand, however, - ie the pair - usually a slight
advantage pre-flop.
In the case of a low pair versus well-coordinated overcards,
though, like 22 vs JT, the JT actually has the slight advantage,
As the board plays out
those hand odds change, obviously. If you'd like to see how the get altered try

More on Calculating Poker
Hand Odds
Good poker, at its heart, is a mathematical game now and the quicker and more
accurately you can calculate proper poker odds in real time, the more empowered you can
be to make good decisions at the poker table.
Knowing your odds of winning at any point
in a hand is a good base of understanding but poker is a game of incomplete information
and you won't have access to your opponent's actual hand to make your decisions.
What
good poker players do is go through a systematic thought process throughout the hand to
figure out what the most likely hands they are facing in any circumstance.
This is
called "Putting Your Opponent on a Range" and is a critical stepping stone in taking
your game to the next level. Once you have determined by process of elimination what
your opponent's hand might be you can then apply your poker hand odd knowledge more
accurately.
There are also Poker Hand Range Calculators available online that can help
you do this.

consideration a few other sets of odds to understand where they are in a
hand:
