Poker 5 Card Probabilities? Ok, now I need some answers for my Math Homework, but I do not want the answers, I want you to explain them to me! I have to use the nCr on the calculator apparently, but I am very confused as I was sick that day!

Rules: 5 Card draw with no other people playing and its just a straight-up deal. No wilds!

How Many Poker Hands:
1. Contain 4 spades and one heart?

2. Contain 4 of one suit?

3. Are a full house containing Aces and Kings

4. Are "three of a kind" and contain the king of hearts?

5. Are a straight flush and contain a red 7?

6. Contain no kings?

7. Contain 2 8's?

8. Contain 3 hearts?


Your help is much appreciated!!!

Thanks in advance,

1. Contain 4 spades and one heart?

Choose 4 spades and one heart:

(13C4)(13C1) = 715 Г— 13 = 9295

2. Contain 4 of one suit?

Choose a suit, then choose 4 of them, then one of the rest.

(4C1)(13C4)(39C1) = 4 Г— 715 Г— 39 = 111540

3. Are a full house containing Aces and Kings

Here you can only choose which suits, and which has two (or three). So choose one of the types to be the three-of-a-kind (the other will have two). Then choose three suits for one, two suits for the other:

(2C1)(4C3)(4C2) = 2 Г— 4 Г— 6 = 48

4. Are "three of a kind" and contain the king of hearts?

Pick two suits for the other kings, and then two other cards:

(3C2)(48C2) = 3 Г— 1128 = 3384

5. Are a straight flush and contain a red 7?

Choose either hearts or spades, and then choose where in the straight the seven is (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or 5th).

(2C1)(5C1) = 2 Г— 5 = 10

6. Contain no kings?

Just pick from the deck minus the kings:

48C5 = 1712304

7. Contain 2 8's?

Choose suits for the two eights, and then three cards from the rest:

(4C2)(48C3) = 6 Г— 17296 = 103776

8. Contain 3 hearts?

Pick three hearts, then two of the non-hearts:

(13C3)(39C2) = 286 Г— 741 = 211926"


how do you play 5 card draw? I am trying to learn how to play poker so if anyone can tell me a good site that can teach me or give me the rules yourself that would be great.

rotodogman replied: "5 card draw is a pretty standard poker game - each player is dealt 5 cards face down - betting takes place - some rules state you must have a pair of Jacks or better to open the betting - other rules will allow you to open on anything - then every one who did not fold is allowed to draw up to 3 cards - another round of bettting - then those that are left reveal their hands and the winner is the player with the best hand"


How many types of Poker are there? I like to play Poker with a few of my mates every now and then. Sometimes they will bring some extra people with them which is great! The trouble is some of them play a different way to us, or don't understand the rules to whh we play. Is there a universal poker game or set of rules? I.e instead of 2 card draw and 5 card hold-em?

Giedrius M replied: "Poker is not so old game, and there are quite many variations of it. Even holdem has more than one version - limit, no limit , pot limit... However, holdem is easiest to learn
usually, so at the moment it is most popular (except strip one, but who cares who wins on it ? :))) )
Another popular versions are 7 card stud (more popular in usa) and Omaha (more european), which have subversions on their own. This still leaves a lot of less popular poker versions out, including chinese, Razz, etc. There is even a version when you switch games played each couple of hands (H.O.R.S.E)

I suggest agreeing beforehand what game you would play.
And a more important thing is to simply have fun playing"


Mr. Luva Luva replied: "Too many to name. I have a book at home that lists 1001 poker games!
The most popular right now is Texas Hold 'Em.
Other played in casinos are Stud, Omaha, Omaha 8 or Better, Razz, and H.O.R.S.E. which is a combination of all that I mentioned (the game changes every half-hour or every deal around depending on where you play).

So many poker games, so little time...LOL Good luck!"


redneck_billcollector replied: "There are tons of variations of poker, growing up playing home games you learn there are so many variations that were someone to try to list them here Yahoo would almost shut down due to data overload.

If you want to limit yourself to games that are spread in card rooms that is a managable answer. Obviously There are the three variations of texas holdem which are limit, pot limit and no limit. A game popular in the Florida card rooms is pineapple and it's crazy sibling, crazy pineapple. Then there is omaha and it's many variations, pot limit omaha, limit omaha and in some places no-limit omaha. There are the split pot versions of omaha known as omaha 8 or better (or hi/lo) played mostly as a limit game, sometimes with a half kill (a liquid variation on the betting levels), every now and then omaha 8 or better is played for pot limit and rarely played as no-limit. So far all the card games named are what as know as "flop games" that name being self explainatory.

The next group of games are stud variants. There is 5 card stud which is pretty much a dinosaur and is getting harder to find except in some western card rooms. The next is 7 card stud which used to be the primary game played in card rooms until the explosion of texas holdem. My personal favorite card game is a split pot version of 7 card stud known as 7 card stud 8 or better, not to be confussed with 7 card stud hi/lo which doesn't have a qualifier for the low pot. Then there is razz, which is basically low ball 7 card stud. And once upon a time you could find Chicago hi or Chicago low which is a split pot version of 7 card stud where the high spade or the low spade (depending on the game) in the hole took half the pot.

When you didn't think it could get any more confussing along come the draw games (though seldom spread anymore). You know about 5 card draw ( I prefer jacks or better version) and then you have a really fun and interesting game, 2-7 triple draw which, once you learn it, is a hoot to play.

I have now listed all the games I have ever seen spread in card rooms, but alas, there are the mixed games with the best known being H.O.R.S.E., a limit game made up of rotations of holdem, omaha 8ob, razz, stud (7 card and hi) and stud (7 card) 8ob. Probably the next most popular mixed game is H.A. which is pot limit holdem and plo (pot limit omaha hi). There are a few mixed games played as tournaments (the two above being the most common), and any number of the games in this answer mixed up played as what are known as mixed cash games, which , by the way, are typically cash games too rich for me.

I would recommend reading Doyle Brunson's super systems I and II which explains almost all of the above mentioned games to some extent (pineapple and crazy pineapple are not even mentioned in the books)."

ZCT replied: "The most popular of all the major poker games these days is Texas Hold'em. That's the one you see on TV 99% of the time.

The most universally accepted rules for the game is Robert's Rules."


rules for poker home games? I am familar with Texas Hold'em tournaments and not so much of general home games of poker. For example, I just played at a home game of dealer's choice poker where we played games such as 7 stud, and 5 card draw; things were different when it came to rotation of who goes first. In Hold'em, the betting rounds after the flop the person to the left of the dealer goes first and it continues around back to the dealer. How does the betting rotation work of who makes the first bet for each round in a home game of poker?

John F replied: "In most games, the betting starts at the left of the dealer.

The only exception I can think of off-hand is any stud-type game where each player has their own Up cards.

The usual way to start the betting in stud is that the lowest up-card has to start the betting on first street, and this is a mandatory bet. On later streets, the player with the best cards showing has the option to open or check."


Keith S replied: "When we play pickup games that we always do left of the dealer for games where no cards are showing and High Hand bets when cards are showing. Though really if its just a game of friends at home it doesnt really matter."


TheDoverPro replied: "Here is a link to Roberts Rules of Poker at greeat site for info on home poker games.

You have to scroll down to get to the stud games, or other variations.


Good luck!"
