Question: What is the probability of a 4 of a kind appearing on the board in texas holdem?

In Texas Hold'em, a player is dealt two down card (or pocket cards). The first card can be any one of 52 playing cards in the deck and the second card can be any one of the 51 remaining cards. This gives 52 × 51 ÷ 2 = 1,326 possible starting hand combinations (since the order of the cards is not significant, the 2,652 permutations are divided. Probability that there will be a 4 of a kind on the board in the form MMMMX is P=.00004495. Adding all 5 of these probabilities gives us a total probability that there will be any 4 of a kind on the board when holding a non-pair in the hole, or P=.0002297. Analyze paired hole cards. Scenario 1: XMMMM. Start with paired hole cards P.

Solution:

  1. All of the following computations assume that you know only your two hole cards, and no other cards are known to you. Thus, there are 50 unknown cards after you see your hole cards.
  2. In the computations below, I'll use the symbol X for the card that does not fill the 4 of a kind, and an M for the cards that do fill the 4 of a kind.
  3. If you do not hold a pair, the probability is different than if you do hold a pair. So, we need to analyze these two cases seperately. The probability (denoted P) of getting a paired hand in the hole is 3/51=.0588235 (your first card from the deck can be any card, while the second must match it; after you get your first hole card, there are 3 cards of the 51 remaining cards that match your hole card). Thus, the probability of getting a non-paired hand is 1-.0588235=.94117647.

Case 1. Let's analyze non-paired hole cards first.

  • Scenario 1: XMMMM
    • Start with non-paired hole cards P=.94117647.
    • X can be any card (even one that pairs either of your hole cards), and there are 50 cards remaining in the deck, so it has P=50/50.
    • The first M, M1, can be any card not matching X (there are 3 that do match X) nor either of your hole cards (because if it did, no 4 of a kind on the board is possible; there are 6), and there are 49 cards remaining in the deck, so it has P=40/49.
    • The second M, M2, must match M1, and there are 48 remaining cards in the deck 3 of which match M1, so its has P=3/48
    • The third M, M3, must match M1, and there are 47 remaining cards in the deck 2 of which match M1, so its has P=2/47
    • The fourth M, M4, must match M1, and there are 46 remaining cards in the deck 1 of which match M1, so its has P=1/46.
    • Now multiplying .94117647*(50/50)*(40/49)*(3/48)*(2/47)*(1/46) gives us the probability that there will be a 4 of a kind on the board in the form XMMMM, or P=.00004442.
  • Scenario 2: MXMMM
    • Start with non-paired hole cards P=.94117647.
    • M1 can be any card not matching either of your hole cards (there are 6), and there are 50 cards remaining in the deck, so it has probability P=44/50.
    • X can be any card not matching M1 (there are 3), and there are 49 cards remaining in the deck, so it has P=46/49.
    • M2 must match M1, and there are 48 remaining cards in the deck 3 of which match M1, so its has P=3/48.
    • M3 must match M1, and there are 47 remaining cards in the deck 2 of which match M1, so its has P=2/47.
    • M4 must match M1, and there are 46 remaining cards in the deck 1 of which match M1, so its has P=1/46.
    • Now, multiplying gives us the probability that there will be a 4 of a kind on the board in the form MXMMM, or P=.00004495.
  • Scenario 3: MMXMM
    • Non-paired hole cards P=.94117647.
    • P(M1) = 44/50 (must not match either of your hole cards)
    • P(M2) = 3/49 (must match M1)
    • P(X) = 46/48 (must not match M1; there are only 2 cards left that do match M1)
    • P(M3) = 2/47 (must match M1)
    • P(M4) = 1/46 (must match M1)
    • Probability that there will be a 4 of a kind on the board in the form MMXMM is P=.00004495.
  • Scenario 4: MMMXM
    • Non-paired hole cards P=.94117647.
    • P(M1) = 44/50 (must not match either of your hole cards)
    • P(M2) = 3/49 (must match M1)
    • P(M3) = 2/48 (must match M1)
    • P(X) = 46/47 (must not match M1; there is only 1 card left that does match M1)
    • P(M4) = 1/46 (must match M1)
    • Probability that there will be a 4 of a kind on the board in the form MMMXM is P=.00004495.
  • Scenario 5: MMMMX
    • Non-paired hole cards P=.94117647.
    • P(M1) = 44/50 (must not match either of your hole cards)
    • P(M2) = 3/49 (must match M1)
    • P(M3) = 2/48 (must match M1)
    • P(M4) = 1/47 (must match M1)
    • P(X) = 46/46 (must not match M1; there are 0 cards left that match M1 since they are all on the board)
    • Probability that there will be a 4 of a kind on the board in the form MMMMX is P=.00004495.

Adding all 5 of these probabilities gives us a total probability that there will be any 4 of a kind on the board when holding a non-pair in the hole, or P=.0002297.

Case 2. Analyze paired hole cards.

  • Scenario 1: XMMMM
    • Start with paired hole cards P=.05882353.
    • X can be any card (even one that pairs either of your hole cards), and there are 50 cards remaining in the deck, so it has P=50/50.
    • The first M, M1, can be any card not matching X (there are 3) nor either of your hole cards (because if it did, no 4 of a kind on the board is possible; there are 2), and there are 49 cards remaining in the deck, so it has P=44/49.
    • The second M, M2, must match M1, and there are 48 remaining cards in the deck 3 of which match M1, so its has P=3/48
    • The third M, M3, must match M1, and there are 47 remaining cards in the deck 2 of which match M1, so its has P=2/47
    • The fourth M, M4, must match M1, and there are 46 remaining cards in the deck 1 of which match M1, so its has P=1/46.
    • Now multiplying .05882353*(50/50)*(44/49)*(3/48)*(2/47)*(1/46) gives us the probability that there will be a 4 of a kind on the board in the form XMMMM, or P=.00000305.
  • Scenario 2: MXMMM
    • Start with paired hole cards P=.05882353.
    • M1 can be any card not matching either of your hole cards (there are 2), and there are 50 cards remaining in the deck, so it has probability P=48/50.
    • X can be any card not matching M1 (there are 3), and there are 49 cards remaining in the deck, so it has P=46/49.
    • M2 must match M1, and there are 48 remaining cards in the deck 3 of which match M1, so its has P=3/48.
    • M3 must match M1, and there are 47 remaining cards in the deck 2 of which match M1, so its has P=2/47.
    • M4 must match M1, and there are 46 remaining cards in the deck 1 of which match M1, so its has P=1/46.
    • Now, multiplying gives us the probability that there will be a 4 of a kind on the board in the form MXMMM, or P=.00000307.
  • Scenario 3: MMXMM
    • Paired hole cards P=.05882353.
    • P(M1) = 48/50 (must not match either of your hole cards)
    • P(M2) = 3/49 (must match M1)
    • P(X) = 46/48 (must not match M1; there are only 2 cards left that do match M1)
    • P(M3) = 2/47 (must match M1)
    • P(M4) = 1/46 (must match M1)
    • Probability that there will be a 4 of a kind on the board in the form MMXMM is P=.00000307.
  • Scenario 4: MMMXM
    • Paired hole cards P=.05882353.
    • P(M1) = 48/50 (must not match either of your hole cards)
    • P(M2) = 3/49 (must match M1)
    • P(M3) = 2/48 (must match M1)
    • P(X) = 46/47 (must not match M1; there is only 1 card left that does match M1)
    • P(M4) = 1/46 (must match M1)
    • Probability that there will be a 4 of a kind on the board in the form MMMXM is P=.00000307.
  • Scenario 5: MMMMX
    • Paired hole cards P=.05882353.
    • P(M1) = 48/50 (must not match either of your hole cards)
    • P(M2) = 3/49 (must match M1)
    • P(M3) = 2/48 (must match M1)
    • P(M4) = 1/47 (must match M1)
    • P(X) = 46/46 (must not match M1; there are 0 cards left that match M1 since they are all on the board)
    • Probability that there will be a 4 of a kind on the board in the form MMMMX is P=.00000307.

Adding all 5 of these probabilities gives us a total probability that there will be any 4 of a kind on the board when holding a pair in the hole, or P=.00001513.

So, now we add the two probabilities together to get the total probability of a 4 of a kind appearing on the board regardless of if your hole cards are paired or not: .0002297+.00001513=.00023955, or 4174.46 to 1.

To put this in perspective, if you played 5 days a week, 8 hours a day in a live card room at 25 hands per hour, you would see 1000 hands a week. Furthermore, IF every hand went to the river OR if you rabbit-hunted every hand and looked at all the board cards regardless of if play dictated that they be shown, you'd see a 4 of a kind on the board once a month or so. Of course, since only approximately 20% of all hands go to the river, a full-time live card room player will only see about 2 or 3 a year.

Online players generally see twice as many hands as a player in a live card room; they will see twice as many 4 of a kinds on the board than will a player that plays the same amount of time in a live poker room.

Introduction

#4: Full House Also known as a full boat, a full house is a set of three of the same card plus two other cards that match, such as 8-8-Q-Q-Q. The higher of the three of a kind wins in a showdown of full houses. Four-of-a-kind, or quads as its usually known in poker, is essentially an unbeatable hand in No-Limit Hold’em. There are technically ways you can lose with it but it’s almost unheard of and you’d have to get astronomically unlucky. Let’s start with the elephant in the room. Four of a kind, or quads, are four cards of equal value. For example, four jacks. Full house has ex. Four of a kind QQQQ6. Now which has more #'s in it theres 4 Q's and theres only # K's in full house.

'Bad beat' is a term that can mean having an outstanding chance of winning a bet, only to still lose. The term can be used in any form of gambling but is most commonly applied to poker. Many poker rooms offer a progressive jackpot for very unlikely bad beats. Various other rules are added to ensure that only surprising bad beats win. Below I present tables of bad beat probabilities, starting with the most liberal rules, and ending with the most stringent. The most stringent rules, the 'Bad Beat Type 3', are the most common, in my experience.

Following are the rules for a type 1 bad beat.

  1. Both the bad beat and winning hand must be the best possible combination of five cards. In cases where the same hand can be created multiple ways (for example player has AK and the board shows AAKKQ) the player's hole cards will take priority.
  2. Both the bad beat and winning hand must make use of both hole cards.
  3. A full house must be beaten by a four of a kind or higher.

The rules for a type 2 bad beat are the same as type 1, plus any four of a kind, whether the bad beat hand or winning hand, must contain a pocket pair.

The rules for a type 3 bad beat are the same as type 2, plus a full house may not make use of a three of a kind entirely on the board.

In my experience, is the most common format for bad beat rules is type 3. The additional rule for type 3 makes very little difference, compared to type 2.

The following table shows the probability of each bad beat hand under all three types of rules. The table is based on a ten-player game in which nobody ever folds. The probabilities are for any pair of players meeting the qualifying rules. If you want to know YOUR probability of winning, you should divide the probability in the table by 10.

Official Poker Hand Rankings

  • Royal flush: A straight from a ten to an ace with all five cards in the same suit.
  • Straight Flush: Any straight with all five cards in the same suit.
  • Four of a Kind or Poker or Quads: Any four cards of the same rank. If two players share the same four of a kind (on the board), the larger fifth card (the “kicker”) decides who wins the pot.
  • Full House or Boat: Three cards of the same rank along with two cards of the same rank. In short: trips and a pair.
  • Flush: All five cards of the same suit (not necessarily consecutive). The highest card determines the rank of the flush.
  • Straight: Five consecutive cards (not necessarily the same suit). Aces can count as either high or low cards, but not as both at once. Meaning, a straight cannot go “around the corner”.
  • Trips: Three cards of the same value. If two players have the same trips the highest kicker decides who wins the pot.
  • Two Pair: Any two cards of the same rank together with two other cards of the same rank.
  • One Pair: Any two cards of the same rank.
  • High Card: Any hand that is none of the above hands.
