Assuming nobody else at the table (say 8 players) has a card of your suit you would have 36 cards left of which 11 would be your suit. 3 of the five drawn need to come from those 11 cards. So your best chances would be on the turn and river since the drawing pool would be lower.
1st card of flop 11/36
2nd card of flop 10/35
3rd card of flop 9/34
or roughly 2.31% of on the flop.
If we do the last three cards filling the flush
3rd card of flop 11/34
Turn 10/33
River 9/32
or roughly 2.76% of the time.
Of course the odds of nobody else holding a single card of your suit are silly low.
At least I think I figured that correctly. Maybe we shouldn't clog our game thread with this though.
You're better off discounting the other players unless you have reason to believe they have one of your suit.
which is to say:
1st card of flop 11/50
2nd card of flop 10/49
3rd card of flop 9/48

I don't claim anything, because no one would believe the truth anyways.

Hey, you want to play the draw when I have already made my hand you need to pay for the honor.
Also, I was scared of the flush draw. I sometimes think my getting a set is a prelude to someone else getting a flush.
Rabbit Cam, LM?

My bad, missed the other post. Thanks. Glad everyone got out since the flush would have come down.

yeah for raising enough preflop then because straights are the second favorite hand to appear when I have a set.
