What Does Nut Flush Mean In Poker
Posted : admin On 4/14/2022Well, you have two overcards to his jack, meaning that three aces and three kings are outs to a higher pair. You also have four queens that would give you the nut straight, and you have nine clubs that can give you the nut flush. Of course, you double-counted one of your outs. You can't count the queen of clubs twice. If you get all-in against a flush draw, even though they have a draw to a better hand (a flush), you have a re-draw to a hand that can beat their draw (a full house). The term is more useful in an Omaha type game, where 2 players can frequently hold the same hand (e.g. A nut straight), but one can have a redraw to a nut flush or full house.
