Thank you so much for creating and open sourcing this awesome project! I can't believe it only has 2 stars :-)

I have a question/request: Is it possible to exclude hand combinations in the monte-carlo simulation?

Consider the following use case:
On a 6 player table I have AdAs preflop, and raise 5 x BB and an opponent call my raise.
The flop is: 3h6s5c.
According to the monte-carlo simulation, I have ~38% chance of winning and ~61% chance of losing.
Of all beating hands, a straight accounts for ~52% and two pairs accounts for ~12%.

The problem is: In order for this flop to be of value to you, your hand must have been really bad preflop. After I raised 5 x BB preflop, its unlikely that opponents with bad hands called, and therefore the chance of my opponents hitting 2 pairs or a straight should be greatly reduced.

A solution to obtaining this functionality is to add the ability to exclude hands in the monte-carlo simulation. Is this possible?
