Default Re: Tell me I\'m wrong

Xhad, thank you for your thoughtful intuitive explanation. Whether the dealer burns x cards, or puts x cards into the opponents’ hands, the chances of making the flush on the turn are the same.

Unless I’m in error, the OP demonstrated a somewhat surprising conclusion. If the flush cards are normally distributed, the odds against making the flush on the turn are affected. As the OP said, "Tell me I’m wrong."

Part in bold is the faulty assumption. You are more likely to flop a flush draw those times that your opponents are dealt fewer of your suit than normal.
