Default Some Important Probabilities!!

I saw this and thought it would be very useful for beginners as some of the percentages are a lot higher than I thought they would be.

Below is a table which shows the probabilty that an overcard will appear on the flop and on the board in total when you have pocket pair

Pocket Pair............Overcard On Flop..........Overcard On Board

2-2.............................1.00................ ............1.00
3-3.............................0.999..........................0.999997
4-4.............................0.994 .........................0.99988
5-5.............................0.981 .........................0.9991
6-6.............................0.958............... ...........0.996
7-7.............................0.921............... ...........0.988
8-8.............................0.867............... ...........0.969
9-9.............................0.793............... ...........0.933
10-10..........................0.695................. .........0.869
J-J..............................0.570.............. ............0.763
Q-Q............................0.414................ ..........0.599
K-K.............................0.226............... ...........0.353
A-A.............................0.00................ ............0.00


Hope this is of some use to at least one person, if you want to know the maths that goes into to working out these proabilities, then you need to get out more, no I'm just joking just ask and from my limited knowledge of maths I will attempt to explain it because I do have the explanation its just a bit detailed to write unless someone specifically wants to know.


N.B - Apoligises for all the dots but that is the only way I could do it so that it all lined up properly as I couldn't put a table or anything in
