(Get dealt 5 cards first, then 4 rounds of 3 cards (playing 2 and folding 1 each time)).
What have higher chances to complete, a 678 rainbown on bottom going for a straight, or a 3 same suits cards going for a flush?
(Assuming no blocked outs).
Thanks!
P.D: Any material where I can learn about the math of OFC?

I don't play OFC, but I do sweat it some when I am playing live mixed, so take this FWIW.
While there are 16 cards that make your straight, and only 10 that make your flush, you don't have any control of the order.
Say you get a T next. Should you keep it, and hope to get a 9? Never have these problems with the flush cards.
