Practice Matters
CHANCES OF HOLDING VARIOUS POKER HANDS IN THE FIRST
CHANCES OF HOLDING VARIOUS POKER HANDS IN THE FIRST FIVE CARDS DEALT WHEN THE JOKER IS WILD (53-CARD PACK) age 171, the chances of drawing three of a kind are one in 7 deals and the chances of drawing two pairs are one in 27 deals. In Joker Wild, you see that the chances of drawing three of a kind are one in 21 deals and the chances of drawing two pairs are one in 23 deals. This peculiar situation is caused by the fact that in one-pair hands the player holding a wild card will naturally call three of a kind instead of the lower-ranking two-pair hand.
