Nut Flush - Poker Definition

By A Mystery Man Writer

Nut flush in poker is a flush that also happens to be the best possible hand in a given situation. However, the term nut flush is commonly used to describe any Ace high flush, even if that Ace high flush is not technically the nuts. The board might be paired (allowing for full houses) or there might be a straight flush possible. Ideally we’d only use the term nut flush if our flush really is the nuts – but this is not the case in day to day usage.
