STRAIGHT DRAW PROBABILITY BY CONNECTORY TYPE
FROM NO-GAP TO THREE-GAP HANDS
How connected do your cards really need to be to make a straight? What are the Straight Draw Poker Odds?
This chart breaks down the actual odds of completing a straight by the river, based on your starting hand’s connectivity:
No-gap connectors (e.g., JT, 98)
One-gappers (e.g., QT, J9)
Two-gappers (e.g., KT, Q9)
Three-gappers (e.g., A5, Q8)
Each row shows the percent chance and odds of hitting a straight, regardless of suits.
Use this to assess the real drawing value of hands that look “playable” but may fall short mathematically.
