Answer 2

We'd need some more information here, just as which form of poker you are talking about.

The odds of Omaha, where you have to use two of four hole cards, is different to Hold'em where you can use one or two (or neither) hole card.  Draw will vary depending on how many cards you are allowed to exchange, and so on.

So state which variation of poker you like to play, and then I'm sure you'll get the right answer.

Answer 4

another words dont hold your breath.  I made a straight flush playing video poker once.  And One Royal Flush playing poker online a couple of years ago.  Both etched firmly in my mind, and the Royal as a screenshot on my computer.

Answer 5

Depends on the game actually.

In five card stud, the chance of a straight flush that is NOT a royal flush is one out of 72,193. (36 possible straight flushes out of 2,598,960 total hand combinations ).

In five card stud, the chances of a straight flush that includes the royal flush combination is one out of 64,974 (40 out of 2.598,960).

In Texas Holdem (or 7 card stud) this changes a bit, since you have 7 cards, not 5.

In this game, the chances of a straight flush that is NOT a royal flush is one out of 3,590.57.  (37,260 out of 133,784,560)

And the chances of a straight flush including the royal flush is one in 3,217.21. (41,584 out of 133,784,560).

Quite a difference in the Texas Hold'em game!

And, of course, there are a lot of people that say these hands seem to occur much more frequently when you play online poker! LOL.
