I'm not sure if I am right here though. The 1st way we have a 55% chance of us making the flush for a 4pt royalty with very little chance of a 2nd royalty, maybe we can hit 66-1010 on the top
The 2nd way leads to more chances for royalties. QQ on top is almost double the points as a bottom flush and there's a decent chance we can make a 6pt boat on bottom.
Also foul chances should be considered. Starting with the J's in the middle has a slight chance to foul compared to the JJ on bottom with K in mid and Q on top which is much much harder to foul.
With all this considered I might have just talked myself out of playing the 3-flush on bottom. Thoughts??
P.s. If we are playing fantasy land your insane not to play it with the jj on bottom.
P.p.s. does anyone know the odds on fouling your hand when you start with the JJ in the middle?
