I didn't have a made hand; but I figured almost any card peeled would make me a winner.

You had either 20 or 21 outs. Hardly "almost any card"; in fact, not even a majority of them.

On the flop you were about a 7-to-3 favourite.

My answer to question 2: Any straight flush where one of your hole cards is ten or higher.

You have the absolute nuts with any straight flush where you hold the top card. For the five high, you need to hold the 5 and A.

I've been on vacation for 2 weeks and am glad to see such interesting results. My "best draw" was quickly beat by a number of others and some of the constructions are very interesting. The second question has finally been "team" answered. You need one of the two above situations to happen, either 1) Hold a card in a str. fl. that is T or higher or 2) Hold the top card in the str. fl., needing both the A and 5 if it is the wheel. More quiz fun to come later!
