Poker question...

I guess this is a theoretical situation but... In what situation would you be trailing going to the river and have the most outs to win... I'm thinking something like having an open ended straight flush draw with a pair on the board against pocket deuces???

 
You're right - but it doesn't have to be deuces, just any pair under all board cards. There can also be no cards equal or above you're hole cards, or there could be a split.

You -Js10s
Opp - 4c4d

Board

8s 9s 8d 6c

Any 6(3),7(4),9(3),10(3),J(3),Q(4), or any spade except the 4 (5 left), makes you a winner. 25 outs from 44 cards = 56.8% you will win.
