One For The Math Guys

Anyone know the odds of two players flopping a flush? Is is simply the odds of flopping a flush x2?? As you can see, I need some help.

No, it would be the same as being dealt all 7 cards of the same suit in 7-stud. You have 7 slots (3 on the board, 2 from player A, 2 from player B ). This is also assuming either heads up play, or you don't know the cards of any other players.But, anyway, you just iterate over the last 6 cards (the first card is always the correct suit). Then the math is something like(12/51) * (11/50) * (10/49)...

nosoul has the right idea, but the answer also depends on how many players are in the game . . . his method works for heads up play

I know the odds of flopping a flush are 5.8% with any soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooted cards.... but they were soooted!And soooted cards are only 1.5% better than the same 2 cards but offsuit.

No it doesn't.

No it doesn't.

Wait...depends on what the question means. if it means What are the odds that me and Jack bopth flop a flush, then it doesn't. If it means me and anyone else at the table flop a flush, then yeah, it does.
