New Posts For Thread: quick odds questionhttps://community.betfair.com/general_betting/go/thread/view/94082/30657867/quick-odds-questionAssuming the odds for the draw in each game was 25/1 - What would be the odds on a team in the 6 nations drawing twice in one tournament?I make it about 75/1 but am not sure.........Using binomial probabilities (n=5, p=1/26), the probability of getting exactly 2 draws is 0.013150834 or almost exactly 75/1. The probability of 2 draws or more is 0.013687 or 72/1.https://community.betfair.com/general_betting/go/thread/view/94082/30657867/quick-odds-question?post_id=548018761#548018761Using binomial probabilities (n=5, p=1/26), the probability of getting exactly 2 draws is 0.013150834 or almost exactly 75/1.

By the laws of probability;P(0)+P(1)+P(2)+P(3)+P(4)+P(5)=1then P(2)+P(3)+P(4)+P(5)= 1 - {P(0)+P(1)}then using Pascal/BinomialP(0)= 1*(25/26)^5P(1)= 5*(1https://community.betfair.com/general_betting/go/thread/view/94082/30657867/quick-odds-question?post_id=548017443#54801744312 minutes to log in today!Clearly there will be 0,1,2,3,4 or 5 draws in your 5 selected matches.

Assuming independence.10* (1/26)^2*(25/26)^3 which comes to around 76/1.I will give it some more thought though.https://community.betfair.com/general_betting/go/thread/view/94082/30657867/quick-odds-question?post_id=548013429#548013429If you mean twice and no more than twice then your answer is , I think, as follows.
