5. Odds in Omaha Hi-Lo<br />

Any AA23/AA2K<br />

The total number of 4-card combinations possible from a<br />

52-card deck is 270,725.<br />

There are 6 2-card combinations that can contain AA.<br />

There are 4 * 4 = 16 2-card combinations that contain 23.<br />

The number of 4-card combinations that can contain AA23<br />

is the number of possible 2-card combinations that contain<br />

2 Aces (6), multiplied by the number of possible 2-card<br />

combinations that contain 23 (16):<br />

6 * 16 = 96<br />

The probability of AA23 in the pocket expressed as a percentage<br />

is:<br />

WILLs<br />

* 100 = Probability as %<br />

Total Possibilities<br />

96<br />

* 100 = .035%<br />

270,725<br />

The odds of A23 in the pocket are:<br />

Total Possibilities = 270,725<br />

– WILLs = 96<br />

WILLNOTs = 270,629<br />
