I was curious what would happen to the odds of the ranks of poker hands if a single game of stud poker was dealt from a shoe containg multiple decks. It would seem that for any individual card it would have little or no effect, but for bigger hands I would think it could have a tremendous effect. Any ideas how to figure this?

Thanks,

The Wiz has a section about multiple-deck poker probabilites. It's near the middle of this page:

He does NOT include the probabilities for whacky hands, such as a suited full-house, etc.

Exactly what I was looking for, I'm not sure how I missed it on the site already.

Thanks DJTeddyBear.
