Flush Draw
同花听牌
A flush draw has four cards of the same suit and needs one more of that suit to make a flush. With 9 outs on the flop, a flush draw has about 35% equity by the river. It is one of the strongest draws in poker.
Example
With Ah Kh on a board of 2h-7h-8s, you have a flush draw with 9 outs.
