I deal High Card Flush, and also enjoy playing it as well. One thing I've noticed is that when a player has a five-card flush, a disproportionate amount of the time, the dealer does not qualify.

It may well just be confirmation bias, but maybe there's a mathematical reason why, when one player has a five-card flush, other hands including the dealer's are less likely to be at least a three-card?

I have a lot of experience with HCF. I was one of the first in the Country to have HCF go live. I found the game during it's trial in Laughlin and called my friend at Galaxy and recommended that Galaxy Gaming buy it, which they did. I have found the complete opposite if the player is playing heads up with the dealer.

A high amount of cards in one suit leaves a high amount of cards in the other suits available for the dealer and the dealer will qualify more than the normal 75%.

Since the dealer reveals their cards first, you can almost bet, if the dealer has a high number of flush cards, there will be some bonuses paid on a busy table. They may not beat the 5 cards dealer hand, but one or two on a full table have a good chance at nice flushes or straight flushes.
