Very, very slim. How does that affect your play anyway postflop anyway?

5 cards out. 47 left in the deck of which you need two. 2/47 on the turn and then 1/46 on the river. 2/47 x 1/46 = .000925069 or .0925%

Something like 1 in 25 if you have a set, thats all I know.

1:989 is two perfect cards
which is what happens here

I've had it once online. Seen where a guy folded 33 on the flop in a live gam and 3-3 ran in.

Running quads is not nearly as cool as a running straightflush, because when you hit your set on the turn you're going to be ahead most of the time. The quad card just allows you to say "lewl got quadZ".

did anyone see Daniel Negranu call the running straight flush card by card in the national heads-up?

That was so funny =)

In the "young guns" tournament or whatever it's called it was pair vs. set and the guy had to catch running quads or runner-runner full house to win the all-in and he caught the quads :D

I pushed JJ once and got called by 33.

I hit trips on the flop.
The other guy hit trips on the turn.
Then he hit quads on the river.

Good times.

Speaking of this, Ken Warren was mad about this one time where he had a pair of aces in the pocket and some guy reraised him and had one bets-worth left. He then set him all-in (this was limit)
On the flop it was AKJ and then it came T on the turn and T on the river

Ken Warren was so mad about it, that in his book he said he shouldn't have set the guy all in, he should have just flat called bet the flop. His reasoning? After he hit the set of aces, he would have bet and the guy would have saved his last bet convinced that he was beat and wouldn't have won that pot.

Apparently Ken Warren doesn't like taking a 981-1 chance of losing the entire pot.
