Also if its preflop this scenario is impossible... only AA will have around 75% chance of winning against one other player... and even if the third player is dominated, he will still have more than 25% against the player without AA (assuming he is playing a playable hand)
ok guys.
The information about hands beating hands has been calculated already (i wrote a program to grind through every possibility for every hand, it took a while to run) 1 vs 1.
Doing it for up to 8 players would take days to run and the file it would produce would be astronomical!
Is there any way of properly calculating from these 1vs1 percentages a 1 vs 2 or more percentage?
Heres an example.
P1 has AA
P2 has 76 suited
P3 has KQ offsuit
P1 vs P2 = 0.775254 vs 0.224746
P1 vs P3 = 0.871198 vs 0.128802
P2 vs P3 = 0.407840 vs 0.592160
the remainding percentages in each case is the percentage of a draw.
Now how can i work out the overall chance of P1 beating P2 and P3, and likewise for P2 and P3?

why did it take till the 10th post for poker to be mentioned? i thought we were talking about a generic "game"
you dont know what your doing, you've messed me about, im oot!

and there is no easy solution for multi-way pots

I didn't mention poker because the game is irrelevant
With the above example using SiM's method ive calculated
P1 67%.
P2 9%
p3 7%
thats not right
How many simulations? You realise you need to do about 10000 before you get an accurate estimate... law of large numbers dude!
Take a look here:
Poker Odds Calculator - PokerCalculatorOnline.com
this does it for you although I doubt that it does enough simulations
that was using your combining percentages method
im really not looking to simulate up to 8 players. To be totally accurate i'd have to go through millions of possibilities.
Its a doozer!
I never suggested a probability method!
sorry steves
