Re: Chance of nuts beating second nuts with same ranks, suits?
Not sure of the logic behind skipping the straight flush boards. One opponent can hold the next higher card for the nuts, and any two other cards play the board for the trivial second-nuts, no?
You DO have to skip all the five-flush boards where the board's flush counterfeits both players' hands (AKJT9s on board, 8s7h and 8h7s in hand) - and there are quite a lot of those.
The basic idea -- count all 4-flushed boards, and the 5-flushed boards that don't counterfeit both player's hands -- is correct.
