Default Error in SSH

Mason and Ed,

Not trying to be nitpicking, but I think I found this tiny, tiny error in SSH.

Pages 285-286

You have A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], the board is T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

The book states that you have 7 outs to the nuts.
I'd say you have 6.

Do I get a t-shirt? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

lol, you're right.
Good job.
The 9 of spades gives the possibility of a straight flush being the nuts.

I'd say you can discount the nine to be 0.9999999 outs or so. So you only have 6.9999999 outs to the nuts.

I guess Ed and Mason must have missed the straight flush possibility and I missed the full house/quads possibility.

Not only the [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]9, but also [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]8 and [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]7 gives the possibility of a straight flush.

Thank you for finding this. We'll fix it for the next printing. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

In the meantime, our A-high flushes are just gonna have to keep losing out to straight flushes. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I like to call those hands, the "relative" nuts, and just assume a hi flush losing to 2card straigt flush is rare enough to not worry about it.
