i would like to ask the cardschat community what are the odds of getting a flush by the river when playing suited hole cards? awnser can be in percentage or fraction.i like playing these cards and knowing the odds of connecting might improve my game

If you have a flush draw on the turn then its what, ~18% chance that the last card will be your suit.

Don't every play cards just because they're suited. A nice rule of thumb I adopted from a wise man is: If you wont play them unsuited, DONT play them suited.

I agree with psy0nyd3 (http://www.cardschat.com/members/psy0nyd3/) . But you have to look, if you got the odds to call a raise over 18%? Are you gonna be paid off if you hit the flush and are other cards may help you to get a winning hand?

i musnt have expressed my point clearly enough but when i asked for the odds i was looking for the odds as they stand pre flop.i already can calculate odds after the flop and after the turn but i phrased the original post wrong

You have just under a 1% chance of flopping the flush and just under an 11% chance of flopping two of the suit you are holding. If you flop the "four flush" you have a 35% chance of completing it by the Showdown. So, ignoring the runner-runner flushes, suited cards have roughly a 4.5% chance of becoming a flush.

Here's a link to a chart:

I was wondering about the odds myself. Thanks to Myclymn for answering that.
