(e) The weak flush is best:

4456677788 is a lot of low cards to kill--- our opponent isn't going to be able to make many 87's. T8654 would normally be a 43rd percentile hand, but it is about 50th against hands missing these cards. Either way it's much better than putting a pair in the middle, even though the boats are 64th percentile while the flush is 33rd percentile.

Do you mean 74th percentile?

Nope, I mean the T-high flush is stronger than only about 33% of opponent backs, after taking out the cards we hold.
