The probability of runner-runner pairing both hole cards is<br />

.0083 or .83% — less than 1%.<br />

To convert this decimal ratio to odds, subtract the WILLs<br />

(.0083) from the total possibility (1.0) to find the<br />

WILLNOTs = .9917.<br />

By approximation we know that if the probability is just<br />

under 1%, then the odds should be just over 100 to 1:<br />

Total Possibilities = 1<br />

– WILLs = .0083<br />

WILLNOTs = .9917<br />

Odds of RR to Pair Both Unpaired Hole Cards<br />

WILLNOTs : WILLs<br />

.9917 : .0083<br />

Reduce<br />

.9917 / .0083 : .0083 / .0083<br />

119.5 : 1<br />
