Custom Question Example

For this example, we assume four players have three cards to a low in seven card stud hi/lo. We want to know how often two or more of them will make a low by seventh street.

The Situation

We use a little bit of range-syntax magic to describe our situation. "$L" is a macro standing for any card that can make a low (A,2,3,4,5,6,7,8). The curly braces "{}" indicate that the cards inside have no ranks duplicated.
