It can't be 7 as 7 is not an option in the quiz.
The choices are 0, 9 or 12.
Wut?!!?!?!?!?
I got 7 outs...
2s, 3s, 4s, 5s, Qh, Qd, Qc
What am I missing? I'm not sure how 0 and 7 outs are coming into play. QJ of spades is the absolute nuts. Any Q would also give top straight, so the nuts too. Any spade would give top flush, although the J of spade would pair the board and give someone a chance at a full house. Seems like 11 safe outs to the nuts, possibly 12.
I think there is obtained 12 outs: 9 Spades + 3 Q offsuited.
To be honest, for nuts (royal flush) there is 2 outs (J and Q spades).
You don't count any outs for a BD, that's why the answer is 0.
It is not clear what a BD?
A backdoor draw.
Lets say you have :Ad:
on a :Qh: board.
You have 2 BD draws (Back door draws)
and 3 or 2 on the turn gives you a wheel draw, and any diamond on the turn gives you a flush draw.
What the final answer?
I'd say 12 outs
9 spades for the nut flush and 3 Qs for the nut straight.
The question does not specifically say it should be the outs for the royal flush... it just say nuts.
Maybe the PSO just wants the student go nuts on the question.
Lol

9 outs !!
I really dont know what you people are talking about XD
For the people who keep banging on about it being 7, you are 100% wrong!! PSO has not done their sums wrong!!
They may have worded their question wrong and its any nut not just the royal, or as wild has pointed out it is a trick question, I would go with the latter. Just counting 2s,3s,4s, and 5s is not a nut as you only have 2 cards to come and you don't have any chance of getting a flush wheel, that is why 7 is a 100% wrong!!!
