The other day I was down at Bullets Poker Club, in the Mobius Strip, playing Texas Hold 'Em. It was a pretty tight crowd and I couldn't get much action but this was one of the more interesting hands of the night.
I limped in on the button with suited connectors (8s, 9s). The flop came down Ac, 7s, 6s. A rock in ealy position raised it up to about triple the big blind. Everyone folded round to me but I stayed along for the ride. He had a pretty sizeable stack and didn't hesitate to go all in when a red Ace hit on the turn. this put me in a tricky spot, my fear was obviously that he'd been slow playing rockets.
If that were the case, the only way to win the hand, would be to land a straight flush on the river.
My two questions for you are:
1. What are my odds of hitting that killer straight flush?
2. Out of interest, what are my odds of making any straight or flush at the river?
