Odds of flop coming 3 to a suit?

[craig r]

Quick question. Is the odds of the flop coming 3 to a suit equal to approx. 1.29% (13/52*12/51*11/50)? I don't know if this is correct. Any help with this would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Craig

If your question is "What is the probability of the flop being 3 diamonds?", then you have the correct answer. If your question is "What is the probability of the flop being 3 of any suit?", then you need to multiply your result by 4.

Edit to say: Lost Wages already gave the answer.
