The term nut flush draw means a flush draw to the nut flush. While the term nut flush should ideally be used to describe a flush only when it’s the nuts, it is often used to describe any Ace-high flush. As such, a player with an Ace-high flush draw might describe themselves as having the nut flush draw despite the board texture being paired (and therefore they are not technically drawing to the nuts).
An inside straight draw is a type of straight draw, more commonly referred to as an open ended straight draw. We make an inside straight draw when we have four cards in rank order, allowing us to complete a straight at either end. For example, we hold 6789 in our hand and can make a straight either by hitting the Five or Ten.
