I'll go with draw for now. I chose 10-J-Q-K-A of spades. And I think I'm rather fond of each one. This is all I need to ensure I win.

Not familiar with this game; never seen it played. What are the rules?

first pick I take all 4 aces and a random card, then I change the random card and 3 of the aces to complete a royal flush ldo. I win because I burn the other 3 aces so you can't make a royal flush, only a king high straight flush

Doesnt matter, makes no sense.

FYP .

Another answer, I take all 4 kings and a random card. Then I trade the random and 3 kings for the complete royal flush (or even a K-high straight flush)

...but you have to go first and villain could pick 4 kings, then improve to a K high straight flush after blocking your royal draw...maybe four tens, so you can make a straight flush up or down and burn higher straight flushes?

and if he does this, he wins imo

ok I've thought about this for a long time.

From what I figure the ONLY winning strategy:

pick TTTTx. Villain can not now get a royal flush. The only way for him to block us from the royal is to block us with his turn by picking AAAAx - JJJJx or else AKQJx with the AKQJ rainbow. If he does this we then make a T-high straight flush. With all the T's gone, a J - A-high straight flush is impossible and we have blocked another T-high straight flush with our draw of TTTTx to start.
