Examples

Displaying a clubs suit symbol in a probability problem involving playing cards.

P(drawing a clubs)=13♣52P(\text{drawing a clubs}) = \frac{13\clubs}{52} 
P(\text{drawing a clubs}) = \frac{13\clubs}{52}

Showing the full set of card suits in a game theory equation.

{♣,♡,♠,♢}\{\clubs, \hearts, \spades, \diamonds\} 
\{\clubs, \hearts, \spades, \diamonds\}

Representing a specific card combination in poker probability.

P(flush in ♣)=(135)(525)P(\text{flush in }\clubs) = \frac{\binom{13}{5}}{\binom{52}{5}} 
P(\text{flush in }\clubs) = \frac{\binom{13}{5}}{\binom{52}{5}}
