@ Linecutter,
yes you're right of course. Your assumptions are correct. I thought that being "off" a percent or two wouldn't matter for a guess in winning probabilities. But then, as ever, I want to make it perfect first, then maybe "cheat" later....gaining speed.
BTW: very interesting software you have there. I am a great fan of simulations, statistics etc.
At the moment I am programming dealing hands and an evaluation routine for the dealt hand. Then I will make some tables for faster access and computing probabilities by doing simulations. i have to give in some to compensate for the lack of speed on a ppc here I think.
Thnx
Marc
