Reading Strategy Cards

I have Frugal VP and love it for the different
features it has over WinPoker but.. I also have
trouble reading the FVP strategy sheets here is a snip
of the VPSM Jacks 9/6 (basic) strategy sheet. When I'm
playing I mentally visulize what beats what in Jacks
9/6. I talk to myself when I play. Usually not out
loud but I'll say things like "hummm a pair beats all
3 to a straight flush except the ones up high like 9JQ
suited" or "hummm I have 3 to a royal and also a high
pair, gee I sure have to give up the chance of getting
a royal but holding the high pair is a better return
based on what's left in the deck. My mouth is dry,
where's that cocktail waitress, I need some more water
from all this brain stuff going on."

(just a small part of the total strategy sheet)
  30.0000 Pat Flush
    21.5402 Three of a Kind
    20.0000 Pat Straight
    17.1410 4 STFL, Open, 2345s-9TJQs
    12.9787 Two Pair
    11.1534 4 STFL, Inside
     7.7027 High Pair JJ-AA
     6.9334 3 Royal
     6.3230 4 Flush
     4.3617 TJQK
  
JT, finally one morning when all the voices in his
head got quiet he closed both eyes and started to
fall asleep. He opened one eye and one of the voices
said "Oh we see you're still awake. About that mistake
you made yesterday, playing the double double bonus
game for five minutes thinking it was Jacks. You did
that. We saw you do it."

Hi Again,
One of the problems I had trying to play VP in LV,
was I was not sure "HOW" to read & understand the
strategy cards.

4 Card Straight Flush
- I assume this means ANY 4 cards of a stratight
flush?
