Hand Types
Backdoor Flush
后门同花
A backdoor flush requires both the turn and river to be of the same suit as your hole cards. With only two cards needed from four, the probability is about 4%. Backdoor draws have low immediate value but add equity to hands.
Example
With Ks on a board of As-7d-5h, you need the turn and river to both be spades.
