What happens when 3 people flop a flush

What are the odds of 3 people flopping a flush?

3 people flop this flush

 

[Goggelheimer]

It is a rare set up but it can happen only 3 clubs missing if I counted right. The shuffling is random.

Well A high flush will be the winner here.

Another fine setup is two players with one card flushes, one A high and the other a straight flush, no royal flush possible.

All gives a lot of action.

3 people flop this flush

The probability of three players flopping a flush is once every 433 hands.

btw
I had a situation with JT after the flop JJQ against 3 players I gave up... Turn comes T and river A... I couldn't believe they had JQ QQ and AA. Only one more was missing with TT xD

I don't know the odds, but I have seen this happen in one hand, of course the player with the highest card would win outright, and if you think about it logically there is a possibility that 5 players could theoretically hit a flush.
5 Players with 2 suited cards = 10 cards, with 3 on the flop making a total of 13 suited cards, so it is possible, but highly unlikely.
In a cash game I was playing Q/10 of spades and my opponent had 8/9 of spades when the flop dropped 3 spades K,J,7, We were both aware that the other player could have the Ace so proceeded with a little caution, but we were both drawing to a straight flush, him needing the 10, that I was holding and me needing the 9, that he had, or the Ace for the Royal Flush.
Miraculously I hit the Ace on the River and made a Royal.

What happens is two of them will loose chips and/or even worse-go broke in that hand.

The probability of three players flopping a flush is once every 433 hands.

That's with the big assumption that the 3 players already happen to hold 6 cards of the same suit, which happens about once per 2966 hands. If we assume that they hold random cards instead, then the probability for a triple flush on the flop is more like 1 in 1286390:

1/((12/51)*(11/50)*(10/49)*(9/48)*(8/47)*(7/46)*(6/45)*(5/44))

If 5 players with random hands see a flop, all 5 will have a flush once in 158753389900 draws.

If we assume that 3 players hold suited hole cards, the chance for them to hold the same suit and to flop a flush is about 1 in 10514.

1/((11/50)*(9/48)*(7/46)*(6/45)*(5/44))

1 player will win... the other two will not.

I have seen 1 player win a 3-way pot very often. Actually almost all of the time except when they chop it up.

what happens ? a lot of money or chips will get in lol

THANK YOU! when people run these odds, they assume everyone starts with suited cars, which is obviously not the case.

Never saw a 3player flush, Higher card probably wins as usual

 

[fundiver199]

Pretty sick cooler and I dont know, if I have actually ever seen 3 flopped flushes in the same hand. Nice to be the guy with the best one. If we are to analyse the hand just a bit, maybe the guy with the 8 high flush could have gotten away on the turn, when there is a raise and a jam behind him? Maybe once in a while he is against someone with the nut flushdraw and someone with a set, but even then his opponents have a lot of outs. And when either opponent has a better flush, he is way behind drawing to two outs at most. So for me at least I think, he could have saved himself the last $43 and watched the guy with the K high flush get stacked

 

[aurora1207]

It's an event that doesn't happen every day, it's really rare. If that happens we can't do anything. It's poker !

 

[Gallarado777]

I watched this short video and everyone has a flash but it will be so common that you don't have to worry about it especially if you're a strong player you'll understand that someone has an older flash when you play against 2 players and you can fold your card but they played to the end which is also a mistake

 

[dzsire]

Since there are 13 cards, it is also possible that 5 people have flushes on the flop. (3 cards on the flop and 2-2 by 5 players.)
Of course, the chance of this is even less than in the mentioned case.

I’ve had a 4 person hand where we all had at least 1 heart with 4 on the board, I lost with the K

I would disagree, If 3 players hold 6 cards of the same suit the chance is 1:433 or 0.2306%

If you have suited cards, you flop a flush	0.8418%	1:118
If two players have suited cards, both flop a flush	0.4857%	1:205
If three players have suited cards, all three flop a flush	0.2306%	1:433
Heads-Up, both players are dealt suited cards and flop a flush	0.0051%	1:19,490
Two players at a 6-max-table are dealt suited cards and both flop a flush	0.0770%	1:1,298
Two players at a full ring table are dealt suited cards and both flop a flush	0.1847%	1:540
Three players at a 6-max-table are dealt suited cards and all three flop a flush	0.0012%	1:85,758
Three players at a full ring table are dealt suited cards and all three flop a flush	0.0035%	1:28,585

These odds are wrong. Players always have suited cards?

 

[0546474]

Wow Flash from the flop with three players at once - that's cool)))

 

[mardi1987]

No, but in this case they had... And the question is what is the chance of that player hitting a flush on the flop, and the answer is 1:433
Another situation:
Three players at a full ring table are dealt suited cards and all three flop a flush is 0.0035% or 1:28585

 

[Luvepoker]

Saw this live as well once. Extremely rare but someone gets paid well in this situation.

 

[Gh0stL]

Hi, if this happens win the player that has high card from this flush or if someone have royal flush or straight flush.

 

[messats]

usually the best hand wins some one could have a high flush but the strangest flush is a straight flush second to high ccard flush

 

[serj537]

For 2 players, I came across. But at 3, this has never happened before. This is very rare.

 

[Recreationalplayer]

Lot of Action..
The hand plays itself..
But such things happen at very low frequency and there is not much to learn here..

Bread and Butter of poker is to learn how to play situations that happen frequently.
