Once the Flop has hit the board, you have 5 of the 7 cards<br />

that will make your best and final hand. After the Flop and<br />

with 2 cards to come, regardless of the hand, any player still<br />

2. The odds of improvement over the next two cards<br />

(the Turn and the River)<br />

3. The odds of hitting certain Runner-Runner hands.<br />
