open ended straights VS flush draws
so i ran this in a simulator
flop: Ad 5h 6h scenario 1: player1: Ac As player2: 4s 7s scenario 2: player1: Ac As player2: Kh Jh I ran these scenarios in a simulator and it actually said the open ended straight had a slightly higher % to win over the flush draw by like .25%. but isnt the flush supposed to be easier to hit because having 9 outs instead of 8 for the open ended straight? |

Re: open ended straights VS flush draws
Both have 8 outs against the set since the A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] would improve the set to quads. However, after a blank comes on the turn, the flush draw usually has only 7 outs. For example, if the turn is the 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], then the 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] on the river would improve the set to a full house. This difference almost balances the runner-runner straight draw that K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] has.
