Stumbled across this in my Poker file (I'm not the author), pretty basic for staight and flush draws or outs in general.
Chasing a Flush
For the first card, you know 5 of the 52 cards in the deck are. So
there are 47 unknown cards... and for your flush you know that 4 of
the 13 possible clubs are already in your sight. So ther are 9 cards
remaining. 9/47 = 19.1%
If you haven't gotten your flush yet, then you know 6 of the 52
cards... and you know that 4 of them are clubs. The odds this time
are 9/46 = 19.6%.
We can't just add 19.1% + 19.6% because that would double count any
instance when both cards would be clubs. So it is 19.1% + 19.6% - (19.1%*19.6%) = 35%.
Results 11 to 12 of 12
