| Flopping the nuts means having the best hand possible already after the flop (first three community cards) have been turned over. If they make that flush, they'll have you beat. It can be a great position to be in, but not as easy as everyone thinks. If at least two of the three flop cards were the same suit, your opponent could be drawing to a flush. For example, if you flop three of a kind 8's, it's not necessarily a sure thing that you'll win. Texas Holdem - Nut Flops The "nuts" is another term for the best possible poker hand. Just because you have the best hand doesn't automatically mean that you're going to make the best use of it, after all. You've got to carefully consider your betting strategy for the rest of the hand, if you want to win the most chips. One major thing to consider when playing Texas Holdem is - When you flop the nuts whether or not it will stay the nuts when the other two cards come. On the other hand, if you flop four of a kind A's, for example, you are almost guaranteed to win. _ |
