Q: One of the best situations in Texas Hold’em is when you flop a set (three of a kind with a pocket pair together with a card on the board.) When you do so, you have the chance to take down a huge pot with your well-disguised holding. However, in the long run, there is no chance in poker, and you can actually calculate how often you will flop a set when playing online poker. Say that you hold a pair of 5s. What is the percentage of flopping a set?
A: 11.8 %. This means, when speaking in terms of pot odds, that you should make sure that you can make around nine times your original investment when you call with a small pair before the flop.
