Comments
When it takes two perfect cards on both the turn and the river to covert an average or weak hand after the flop to a strong one, this should normally qualify as a 'long shot'. Also, 'strong' hands are considered here to be straights and better. These are often referred to as 'backdoor' hands such as a backdoor straight or flush etc.
After the flop, there are always 47 unseen cards. These will make a total of 1081 possible two card combinations that are used to make these probability comparisons.
