Great video.

I was trying to find out how often we hit at least a set when we hold a pocket pair.
So, say we hold 7s7h, how often will the flop contain at least one 7?

Can somebody explain to me why doing (2 choose 1)*(49 choose 2)=2352 is incorrect?

I know it is incorrect, because a) PPT's Range Explorer says the correct number is 2304 and b) 2304 is also the sum of the number of flops that give you a full house and the number of flops that give you quads: (2 choose 1)*(48 choose 2)+(2 choose 2)*(48 choose 1)=2256+48=2304.

to be honest, offhand I'm not sure what's going on but there has to be some sort of double counting going on there. that's why I use PPT. it's a lot easier to just type in 7x** and have it tell us the answer.
