Hi, I have a question concerning statistics involving Texas Hold 'em.

I was not sure what the odds are, blindly, on getting a straight flush, and straight ROYAL flush in hold 'em. I am wanting to know simply how often I can expect this to happen (because it DID happen to me). I have been wondering this for some time now, & some answers would be great... I know the odds are in the millions, but I can never find BLIND odds on hold 'em. If someone could show me a blind odds chart I would be very greatful! Thank you.

I would recomment having a read through en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poker_probability_(Texas_hold_'em)

When I first started I found it helpful, Off the top off my head the odds of a straight flush are 1 in 64,000?

1 in 64000 sounds pretty accurate but being able of playing it is also important because if everybody is folding before you could build up the pot, the straight flush is useless.
