Ok...I've read the first few posts and again..I'm at the same point I was a few hours ago.

She is talking about the chances of someone being dealt a hand in poker. The probability of someone being dealt a hand in poker does not depend on what may or may not come on the flop...because you don't calculate future events when figuring out probabilities.

However, you are talking about the probability of someone having a certain hand given the information that a flop would give you.

Again, two different things.

I think you are reading her statement of "regardless of the flop ace" differently than I am.

I'm reading it as "it doesn't matter because it hasn't happened yet when you are calculating what people were dealt"
