So how can you argue what the nuts are? I thought that was a pretty simple calculation....

We can do a quiz a day. I started doing out puzzles quite awhile back but all that did was start an arguement about what the "nuts" and an "out" are.

That was a tough one! i thought about 32222 but was thinking AAxx would have you beat with 222AA, but didn't realize you had 33322... ery good! Are there any other quizes like this? I definately enjoyed that one.

no wheel straight flushes cause you HAVE to use 2 cards in your hand.
1)999 other 2 cards lower than 9
2) AKQJ10 suited, with 93 of same suit; this gives you A high flush
when I finger the rest I will edit
3) Board=32222 Dork got this one b4 I did

3. does not exist! lol i can't figure out the last answer
1 and 2 correct (though 2 would be Ace high flush)
3 - 993, and 2 other unpaired cards lower than an 8. You'd have full house, 9's over 3's, and no-one else could have higher as there are no cards on board bigger than 9 to make trips.
Edit - no F*@% it - if someone else has got the other 9 and matches other card they'll beat you. 99322's no good cos they could have 22 -oh,i don't know either!

1) 3 and 9 and no other pairs on board
2) 993 and no other pairs higher than 2
3) 999 and no pairs above a 9
all the above assume there is not a straight flush draw on board.

This is a tricky one.
999 flop with the other 2 cards unpaired or lower than a 9 otherwise 999AA you could both have quads
every other option my brain can think of this late I can think of holdings that will beat you, gonna have to put some thought into it ;]
