"Next down the line in hand rankings is the Flush. I think some people might call it the mighty flush. But lets be frank, its not that mighty, it loses to a full house. Some people though, will look down and see these two cards in Texas Holdem, see a Queen Ten suited, and they will play these basically to the death. And thats too bad. Because if I'm drawing with a Queen Ten suited, even if I make my flush, I'm worried about a King of diamonds paired with another diamond. Or I'm worried about an Ace High flush. This hand right here is very vulnerable. If you're going to draw to a flush, try and make it also have a strait draw. Or that your suited cards include an Ace. But seriously, remember that this hand is a very vulnerable hand, its a vulnerable hand to be drawing to. Lets say the flop, say that I hold two suited cards, and the flop it brings me two suited cards. Well, with two cards to come, one in three times I'm going to hit my flush. One in three times. Not three in three times. One out of three times I'm going to hit my flush. That means that two out the three I'm going to loose my money. So be real careful of how you play a flush draw. It's, a flush is not a great a hand as a lot of people seem to think. It's pretty good though. "
