    (This is borrowed from another site)

    There are 52c5 = 2,598,960 combinations of 5 cards, so the probability of flopping a royal flush is 4 / 2,598,960 = 1 / 649,740. Nice one, 5 more andd you can catch me up ;)

    1. The odds of flopping a royal flush first hand are the same as flopping it any other hand, i.e. 1 in 649,740.
    2. I'd say that it was very unlikely that you could have got paid more. He can't have (or be drawing to) a good flush since you have the two best flushing cards and, if he has a hand as strong as two pairs or better I think that you're getting called for the all-in on the river.

    Like buses, get 1 and another comes along ;), nice one :)
  • edited March 2010
    Yeap. Barry can i ask since u got me the odds the last time. Ive noticed that second one is a 6 card straight flush technically. I know only the top 5 count but what is the odds of this.
  • edited March 2010
    i bet you wet yourself when that flop dropped
  • edited March 2010
    the first one i was stunned. the second one i just seen the J comming and if it didnt well chances are i was still ahead

    Hi Don

    This is the naerest I could find :)

    Chances of competing your hand when drawing one card

    Four cards to a Flush 1 - 4.5
    Straight open at both ends 1 - 5
    Straight open at one end 1 - 11
    Straight open on inside 1 - 11
    Straight open at both ends 1 - 5
    Straight Flush open at both ends 1 - 23
    Straight Flush open at one end 1 - 46
    Straight Flush open on inside 1 - 46
