I posted this on RGP a couple months ago, and nobody solved it. (I only drew a small handful of responses, though.)

Playing 10 handed Hold'em with everybody seeing the river, What is the worst (5-card) hand that can take the whole pot? Give each player's pocket cards, and all 5 board cards. (My solution tomorrow)

This is extremly frustrating.

Basically you need 5 'free' cards in order to make up the 10 hands that don't connect with the board. I can't see any other way to get the board lower without bunching the cards too close and losing one of the free cards.

Good puzzle though
