If that were true, a straight would beat a flush.

The probability of collecting straight is 39%, flush is only 2%. Therefore flush is stronger than straight

Mathematics tells us that a flash is still harder to build than a straight.

I think you are mistaken because all four suits can participate in building a straight, and only one is needed for a flush. You will be surprised, but according to the theory of probability, a straight is twice as common as a flash.

flush has the advantage





Playing flush is easier, because if you are the one who defends, you will have to deign to pay, as long as it is consistent, and if you link your project, exploit it to the fullest, instead when you have the straight it is more difficult, you are going to have to make big bets to manage to throw an opponent who is chasing a very high flush, a card can make your ladder useless and make you throw your hand, it is a difficult situation

No one can agree with that.

Street the number of possible combinations 10200, the probability of 0.39%.


Flush the number of possible combinations 5108, the probability of 0.20%.

Should you continue to feel this way and act upon it, you will end up feeling you have a hole in your game, only this time you will be correct. Good luck.

By the way I feel like I should be taller, younger & more appreciated for my basketball skills,.
I do not however continue trying to make the NBA. Just sayin.

I have the answer! Maybe more people try to complete a flush draw than a streight draw. So it appears more times!!
