I'm looking for someone to assist me in completing this chart, I'm not sure the first column is correct. I had an awesome person on here help complete the 3 card version and it was perfect. However, he is too busy to complete the more complicated 5 card version. Any takers? DM me and we can discuss further.

The chart is for a prop bet in a game. The rules of the bet are straight 5 card stud, with one standard deck of cards. A player can win, dealer can not qualify (A, K to qualify), player and dealer can tie, and player can lose. The chart attached will give me all the info I need to calculate odds, house edge and payouts. Thank you!

I do not have enough posts to add the chart. So I will describe
Five columns: Hand Rank, Win, Tie, Loss, No Qualify
Nine rows: Royal Flush, Straight Flush, Four of a Kind, Full House, Flush, Straight, Three of a Kind, Two Pair, One Pair, High Card.

Total number of hands after all combinations are calculated: 19,933,230,517,200

Well, your post title 'To hire' implies you are available to hire. The opposite of 'Help Wanted.' or 'Contractor Opportunity' etc.
Psalm 25:16 Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. Proverbs 18:2 A fool finds no satisfaction in trying to understand, for he would rather express his own opinion.

I have changed it for you.
So many better men, a few of them friends, are dead. And a thousand thousand slimy things live on, and so do I.

You're in luck - I found a faster way to do it ("only" 18 hours), and managed to crunch the numbers. They appear to match what I get in simulation.

Note that the actual number of deals is 2,598,960 x 1,533,939 = 3,986,646,103,440.

Interestingly, when you add up all the numbers they do all match the total. However, if each cell is divided by 3,986,646,103,440 then the total probability only equals 0.8103066760. Shouldn't it come out to 1.0?

Actually, they do! I had my decimals set to 10 places. If you change it to 15 places it works out to 1.0! Awesome!!!! Thanks again. This is a lifesaver.
