Default Exactly how many Flush draw hands are there?

There is a flush draw on the flop. My opponent is on the BB and could have any two cards. There are 1326 starting holdem hands. There are 9 hearts left in the deck that if he holds two of them he has a flush. How many hands of those 1326 are out there that give him two flush cards?

I want to compare this to the number of hands that contain an Ace that I beat. (I flopped 2 pair) This number is 84.

I am heading out for the day, I'll respond tonight. Thanks for the help!

C(9,2)=9*8/2=36
