Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In hand one you hold AdAh. The flop comes 5h6d8s. You are in the hand with two other players. How many hands can your opponents have that would have you beat at this time?

Answer: Eight

There are eight hands that have your hand beat at this moment in time. In all of the following hands the suit of the cards does not matter because no flush possibilities figure into this situation therefore the hands are considered suit neutral. Your opponent could have trips with pocket Fives, pocket Sixes or pocket Eights (3 hands).

They could have two pair if they hold 56, 58 or 68 (3 hands). They could also hold 47 or 79 to give them a straight (2 hands). Therefore the total is 8 (3 + 3 + 2 = 8).
2. In hand two you hold KsKc. The flop comes AsKhJd. You are in the hand with one other player. How many hands can your opponent have that would have you beat at this time?

Answer: Two

There are two hands that beat you here. Suits do not matter in this hand because of the rainbow flop. Both pocket Aces for a better set and QT for a Broadway straight beat you here. Against the pocket Aces you would be in serious trouble with only one out to a win (the remaining Kd) or runner runner for a shared Broadway straight (any remaining combination of QT). Against the QT you would be in much better shape but still a 2 to 1 dog (your opponent is a 64% favorite). You would need the board to pair to either get quads or a full house.
3. In hand three you hold 7h8h. The flop comes 6h9dAh. Preflop you had put your opponent on a pocket pair and now you fear he has trips. If he does have trips, how many outs do you have to beat his hand?

Answer: Fourteen

In this hand you have 14 outs that would beat your opponent's trips. Any remaining heart would give you a flush so that's 8 outs. Normally the number of outs would be 9 for a flush but the 9h would give your opponent either quads or a full house if you put them on trips. Any 5 or T would give you a straight so that's 8 more outs (four for each card).

But since you already counted the 5h and the Th as part of the flush outs you actually only gain 6 straight outs. 8 + 6 = 14. Even if your opponent had pocket Aces and therefore trip Aces, you would still have a 40% chance to win the hand.
4. In hand four you still hold 7h8h. The board now reads 6h9dAh9h with the 9h coming on the turn. You had put your opponent on trips on the flop but you have now hit your flush. You are free to bet because the board holds no danger for you since a flush beats trips.

Answer: False

Actually the board holds great danger for you. If your opponent had trips on the flop, then he has improved to a full house or even quads, both of which beat a flush. This was a terrible card for you because it improved your hand but also improved your opponent's, still leaving you with second best.

In either case you would be drawing to a two outer on the river, either the 5h or the Th. Either of these cards would give you a straight flush and win you the hand no matter what your opponent had.
5. In hand five you hold 9dJd. After the turn the board reads 8dTcAdTd. It is possible that you do not have the best hand. How many outs will give you the nuts (an unbeatable hand) no matter what your opponent(s) hold?

Answer: Two

There are only two cards that will guarantee you victory no matter what your opponent(s) hold - the 7d or the Qd. Both of these cards will give you a straight flush and beat any other possible hands, including quad Tens. This is the strongest hand an opponent could hold in this case but it would lose to you.
6. In hand six you hold AdTs. The flop comes AsJs9s. There are 36 combinations of two Spades that would give your opponent a flush and have you beat. Besides these 36 hands, how many other hands beat you in this scenario?

Answer: Eight

Although you have a pair Aces with a decent kicker, there are still eight hands that would have you dominated. Pocket Aces, pocket Jacks, and pocket Nines would give your opponent trips (3). AK and AQ would give your opponent a pair of Aces with a better kicker (2). AJ, A9 or 9J would give your opponent two pair (3). 3 + 2 + 3 = 8.
7. In hand seven you still hold AdTs. The board reads AsJs9s5s5d. Do you have the nuts? Pick the answer that is most accurate. (The nuts is an unbeatable hand)

Answer: No, four or more hands can beat me

In this instance you have a strong hand with an Ace, Jack, Ten high flush but your hand is still very vulnerable. A player holding either the King or Queen of Spades with any other card would have a better flush (over 40 different combinations). You would also lose to pocket Aces, pocket Jacks, pocket Nines or pocket Fives. Clearly more than four hands can beat you here.
8. In hand eight you hold 6d2d. The flop comes 6s6c2c. The turn is the 6h and the river is the 4c. The board reads 6s6c2c6h4c. How many hands have beat you on the river?

Answer: One

There is only one possible hand that beats you in this situation - 5c3c. If your opponent has this hand then he has a straight flush and your quad Sixes are beat. On the flop you had the best full house possible and on the turn you improved to quads meaning your hand was unbeatable on both those streets but the 4c on the river opened up this very slim possibility for you to lose the hand.
9. In hand nine you hold 7s9s. The flop comes 9h7d6h. How many hands have you beat at this point?

Answer: Five

You are trailing only five hands at this point. If your opponent holds pocket Nines, pocket Sevens or pocket Sixes, you are behind to a set. If your opponent holds T8 or 85, you are behind to a straight. If he holds pocket Nines you can only win by hitting runner runner Sevens for quads. If he holds pocket Sevens you have only two outs - either of the remaining Nines. If he holds pocket Sixes or either of the straights you have the most outs at four. You can get a full house with any of the remaining Sevens or Nines which would give both of you a full house but yours would be stronger.
10. In hand ten you still hold 7s9s and, after the turn, the board reads 9h7d6hKh. Assuming your opponent has the best possible hand at this point, how many outs do you have to win the hand?

Answer: Four

The best hand possible at this point is an Ace high flush. Assuming your opponent holds this, you only have four outs. You need to catch one of the two remaining Nines or Sevens to get a full house and win the hand. Your odds of winning the hand are approximately 10%.
