NSUD Strategy

#1

NSUD strategy has you holding certain 4 card open straight
possibilities (a duece with 567 to TJQ) which is just barely better
than holding a duece only. However, it does not suggest holding any
non straight flush possibilities. In the straight there seems to be
3 dueces and 8 other cards remaining in the deck that can give you a
straight. Are there not 3 dueces and 9 other flush cards that can
give you a flush? The flush pays more. Why is that not an option
that is slightly more valuable than the straight hold? I know this
is not a big strategy difference, but I am curious as to why I cannot
see the logic in this missing choice!

Thanks,
Bob

There are actually 19 cards which will fill a straight (3 deuces plus
4 each of 4 other ranks). Starting with 567, all of 3,4,8,9 complete
the straight. 19 x 10 = 190; 12 x 15 (for flush) = 180.
