Poker Odds - Different Hold ‘Em Preflop Hands in Heads Up Vs Multi-Way Pots
When playing Texas Holdem, many people have different ideas as to which starting hands they should try to thin the field with and play against one opponent or which hands they should keep multiple players in the pot in an attempt to take extra money. This article looks at the odds of different Texas Holdem preflop hands winning in heads up (2 player) verse multi-way pots to try to get some feel for how these hands perform against different numbers of players. In looking at these hands, we will make a few assumptions. We have put say $10 in the pot preflop and we either have one caller or three callers. We assume that ourselves and all callers are then all-in preflop. Now we run thousands of simulations where we deal random cards to both our opponents cards as well as the flop, turn and river and look at the percentage of these randomly dealt rounds where our hand wins for the case of 1 caller and the case of 3 callers. This then allows us to measure our expected pot size for the two player verse the multi-player situation in an attempt to gain insight into the correct strategy.
