And yes, there will be a cash prize.

Today's "money" question is going to have to do with counting outs. It will not be posted for at least a few hours (to give people a chance to see this).
Here's a warmup question, just for fun. No money prize here, just bragging rights: Exactly how many different combinations of turn/river cards are there in a Heads Up situation in Hold'Em? In other words, if someone needs to hit perfect-perfect runner-runner to make a straight flush (for example), what are their chances? |

990 possible turns/rivers
.1% to make the runner runner SF or 989:1

It would be 1/47 * 1/46 would it not?
The chances of hitting runner-runner would be 1/47*46/2, or 1/1,081? I used 47 and 46 since opponents 2 cards are unknown.

(45 possible turn cards*44 possible river cards)/2 (to account for the same two cards in reverse order)= 990 (possible two cards combinations)
7 cards are already out after the flop
