Default Re: 7-A Five Card Draw

Just an addition to the figures you provided for 7-A when
played in practice: namely, when the game is 5-handed, sixes
are also included in the deck so that there are now 36 cards
instead of just 32.


There are now C(36,5) = 376992 hand combinations, and from
the strongest hands, the combinations (and probabilities)
for them are:

24 straight flushes (0.0000637)

288 quads (0.0007639)

1728 full houses (0.004584)

480 ordinary flushes (0.001273)
[Ordinary flushes DO NOT beat a full house at the only
online site that spreads the game.]

6120 straights (0.01623)

16128 trips (0.04278)

36288 two pairs (0.09626)

21504 combinations of AA (similarly, for KK etc.)
so there are

193536 combinations of one pair (0.5134)

122400 nothing (0.3247)
