odds question

[diggitron1 0]

I've looked for this on the internet, but couldn't find it. So I'd appreciate the help.Ten handed game. You are dealt Kx suited. What are the odds that someone else is on Ax suited?I ask bc i've been operating under the impression that a king high flush was a pretty strong hand.But I seem to be losing to the Ace flush a lot. Am i just catching bad breaks or am i playing bad odds?I don't mind a rough patch, if this is still a good bet. I pretty much only play it when I have position, or from the big blind if I don't face a raise. But it's still been a losing proposition for me.Let me know if I need to remove it from my game.

To quote Phil Hellmuth... "millions of dollars are lost every year on king-high flushes."I personally think it's a leak to limp in ever with Kxs, where x is less than 10. You just don't want to be in the habit of drawing to non-nut flushes.

If you have Kx suited in a 10-handed game, the odds of the A of the same suit also being out there are 18/50. If it is out, the odds that it's paired with yet another card of the same suit are 10/49.So the answer is 18/50*10/49 = 7.35%.
