:2d: 7s v 5c 6c with a flop of :3c: :3h: 4c is: 28.38% v 64.34% (7.27% split)

the split % should be equally divided between the two and so becomes 32.02% v 67.98%
by your method :2s: :2h: v qc kc on a flop of tc jc th is 28.08% v 71.01% (0.91% split)
Interestingly John"s matchup of ah :2s: v 7c 8c on a flop of 9c tc 5h (29.09% v 70.91%) might be the worst you can get that cannot end up in a split?
The answer to all this must be on the net somewhere lol.

What is the prize? I hope it"s an APAT seat.

no you worked it out ok thinsy, the main difference between the two methods is that equity combines the odds of win and tie into a single fractional pot-win number that is easier to work with, but breaking it down to win/tie/loss gives a much better picture of a hand"s true strength.[hard to do in heat of moment :)]
when you start getting into range vs range analysis, then because equity normalizes those wins/ties into a single number,it makes the math easier... pokerstove anyhows will break it down for you so that you can see your overall equity as well as your win/loss/tie percentages in the window below...

Research shows that only 23.36% of poker players use this method when making a decision and 74.23% of players tend to play on instinct alone. Suprisingly, only 32.44% of players take into account what their opponent may have and, even more astonishingly, a mere 12.45% of players will "play the player". To sum up, 1.21% of people reading this will actually believe some of this and 98.74% of people really couldn"t give a....... %%%%
;D ::) :-X
Have I won an APAT seat yet? :P
P.S. Why haven"t we got a little smiley icon type thing in the form of the APAT logo?
