That is, once you've been dealt AKs of a fixed suit, there is only one unordered flop that gives you ar royal flush. Since there are (50 choose 3) unordered flops, the probability that a royal flush is flopped is 1/510204. |

[/ QUOTE ] I think that's the probability of flopping a royal with AKs; but if you haven't looked at your down cards yet, you could have AQs, ATs, AJs, KQs, KJs, etc. and all other combos that can flop royals. Maybe that's the stat he was giving. |

[/ QUOTE ] Yes, but I was answering the orginal question of the probability of flopping a royal, not the probability of being dealt suited broadway AND flopping a royal. (Also the number I gave applies to the probability of flopping a royal once you've been dealt ANY suited broadway.) |

Anyway, you're right, (50 choose 3) is 19600 so the correct answer is 19599:1. You're an idiot though. |
