It's the same odds... same 52 cards deck, same 5 card hands; the difference is in the betting patterns.

My already low opinion of op hit rock bottom with this thread. I can't believe people play this game and don’t have the most basic understanding of the hands and odd's of hitting "outs"

When calculating the rank of a hand in any game of poker, start with 0 cards and figure out the odds of getting the 5 cards you need being dealt 5 (or 7) random cards.

"Yea, but with 5 cards the odds of hitting the draw is greater for a flush than a straight so a straight should be higher ranking" is one of the most stupid things I have ever heard. You have to include the odds of getting that draw in the first place.

Yes op, I did read your non-sense in every post and really think you need to read a good book or 3.

Have a nice day
