People wonder why 2% was decided when applying the Rule of 2 and not any other number. There are 52 unknown cards, so the percentage of one card turning up is 1 in 52, or 1,923%. This was far too difficult a number to calculate your chances of winning in a game so it was rounded down to 50 unknown cards, giving an easier to remember number of 2%. While this is commendable for ease of use, in maths when you introduce rounding, either up or down you introduce errors. Waiting on the turn the error is 4% and the is same waiting for the river.
If you're happy with this error use the Rule
But please remember the error the next time you apply the rule!
