I recently played in a home tourney and got involved in an interesting first hand.
I was in BB with Q /images/graemlins/diamond.gif4 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif, no raise preflop so 4 to the flop. Flop comes Ace /images/graemlins/diamond.gif and two other diamonds. So i flop my flush and bet the pot. Player next to me raises all in. Thought about it for a minute and called. I was banking that the villain was drawing for and didnt flop his King high flush and was right. I made the call because i had a vague idea of the odds of two players flopping a flush. What is the exact odds of that happening and how am i supposed to come up with it? Kinda long-winded i know but thanks.
