Here we`ll attempt to explain the numbers that you so often hear about, particularly the odds you face when playing the game. We`ll try to keep it as simple as possible, so don't worry!
The first thing you should consider is the chances of being dealt the following hands from a fresh deck. Below you will find the hand, the number of possible ways of attaining that hand, and the corresponding odds.
Hand | Number of Ways To Make the Hand | Odds |
Royal Flush | 4 | 1 in 649,740 |
Straight Flush | 36 | 1 in 72,193 |
Four of a Kind | 624 | 1 in 4,165 |
Full House | 3,744 | 1 in 694 |
Flush | 5,108 | 1 in 509 |
Straight | 10,200 | 1 in 254.80 |
Three of a Kind | 54,912 | 1 in 47.32 |
Two Pairs | 123,552 | 1 in 21.03 |
One Pair | 1,098,240 | 1 in 2.36 |
No Pair Hand | 1,302,540 | 1 in 1.99 |
Now that you have the probabilities of getting the hands, have a look at the payouts for each winning hand.
Royal Flush | 100 to 1 |
Straight Flush | 50 to 1 |
Four of a Kind | 20 to 1 |
Full House | 7 to 1 |
Flush | 5 to 1 |
Straight | 4 to 1 |
Three of a Kind | 3 to 1 |
Two Pair | 2 to 1 |
One Pair | 1 to 1 |
Ace-King | 1 to 1 |
You`ll most likely notice the payouts don't necessarily reflect the odds of attaining the hands, but unlike other games there is a distinction between simply winning, with say, two pairs, and with winning in style, with a royal flush!! Nice!
