For example, pot odds of "0.5" (or 50%) means that you need a better than 50% chance of making your hand in order to see positive expectation value from the hand. The odds are expressed as a fraction of 1.0. Once you've installed the extension, you'll see a small "Pot Odds" box appear at all times in the top right corner of the table. The calculation is based purely on the bet size and pot value – it has nothing to do with card values, hand odds, or your opponents playing style. This extension doesn't send any data off-site, nor does it look at your cards.

So on the turn (pre-river), it's even cheaper to compute the hand equities. Given the flop and turn, there's only 42 possible river cards. Given the flop, there's only choose(43, 2) = 903 boards possible by the end, so the flop probabilities (which you call the pre-turn), it's very cheap to enumerate all the runouts and compute the average equity for the three hands. This gives you preflop probabilities, and this is the most expensive thing to compute. (Or more accurately, compute the equity for each hand, since sometimes 2 or 3 hands will tie on the river). Enumerate all boards, and count how many times each hand wins on the river. That means there's choose(46, 5) = 1,370,754 different boards by the river. How to use our Poker Odds Calculator Select your variation of poker at the top of the calculator. Given 3 hands (6 cards), there's 46 cards remaining in the deck. For example, if you're considering preflop probabilities, you only care about the entire board by the river, and not the specific flop, turn and river. The trick is to disregard the order the cards come out as much as possible. The numbers are much smaller than you might expect, so brute-forcing is quite possible.
