Right, and you are reading it wrong. Everyone is talking about the present. Why would we care what the odds WERE preflop that someone was dealt an Ace when we are on the flop now, trying to play poker and make decisions? Of course we need to use all of the information available to us.
I am saying that the more Aces on the flop, the less likely it is (NOW) that one of our opponent holds one, and MathBabe is disagreeing with me. She is saying that the odds remain the same (NOW) regardless of how many Aces were flopped because the hole cards were dealt first.
If I am misinterpreting what you are saying MathBabe, please clarify... but I can't think for the life of me why anyone would care about completely irrelevant odds (what the odds WERE preflop, discounting all the information we have available to us now after the flop), so I have to assume we're on the same page here.
