Though the above odds actually apply to a five card draw they still show the relative odds of drawing any poker hands. Since you actually get 5 community cards as well as your two pocket cards to make your hand in Hold'em your chances of getting each hand are a little greater, but since you share those community cards with your opponents, their chances of making the hand are the same. What it all boils down to is use these odds to assess your chances of making a hand and your opponent making a better one.

Of course this may not always happen so the percentages may actually be a bit higher. Nevertheless, this table gives a good idea of how well you can expect to do with any pocket pair before you see any community cards.
