If we flop a flush draw in Hold'em, we know 9 cards of the remaining 47 cards will help us on the turn. In draw poker, if we flop a flush draw, we know that any 9 of 48 cards will help us. I think it's possible that we get the same card back in draw poker, which we just dumped. So the odds are not the same. The odds of FLOPPING either a straight or flush should be same, but that's not where the game ends, and that was poker111's original question.
