Default Re: Preflop - Final Hand Probabilities

The probabilities of straight or better (I assume you wont object to quads or a full house) are 17.66/16.20/15.95/13.94 for the hands you list.

The number of callers to make it profitable varies based not only on loose vs passive, but blind structure, NL vs Limit etc.

The flush equity in having them sooted is less than most think, as well. the 13.94-17.66 range goes down to 10.45-14.40. I prefer them unsuited because its much harder to get away from the flush than the straight, but Ive seen those low flushes cracked by Ax and Kx limpers too often. Those hands are dead when its the straight, not the flop that comes.
