Are straights allowed to "wrap around"? For example, QKA23--I remember when we did counting problems in class with cards, it was ok--jdrummon
No, The low card for straights is Ace, as well as the high card. e.g.
A2345 is the lowest straight
10JQKA is the highest straight

==================================
my idea was
|hands with distinct cards| - (|straights| + |flushes| - |straight flushes|)
but result is negative number. any idea?
That's basically the right formula. Quick tip: you should be getting more around .5 for the probability when you are done.
