DB quad odds

I know the odds of getting a 4 of kind on JOB is about 1 in 425 with
perfect strategy but what are the odds of getting any 4 of Kind in
10/7 DB with perfect stategy?

I'm asking because I'm practicing on the computer and getting my butt
kicked!

Because DB has such a small advantage it is not unusual to have long losing
streaks. About 4 years ago I ran a series of DB 10-play simulations using
WinPoker and finished with a loss. I showed a loss of $252,220 after playing
41,500,000 hands. Below are a couple of clips from Zamzone Support that I
saved.

"I think there is only about a 1% chance that you would be 252,200 down
after 41,500,000 total (4,150,000 base) hands in 10 play compared with .02%
chance in 41,500,000 hands of single play".

"To have a 99.99% chance of being at least $1 up, you would need to play
around 275 million hands in 10 play. Compare that with about 130 million
hands in single line play".

5-card
