Hand Rankings

How to use this guide:

  • A = Ace
  • K = King
  • Q = Queen
  • J = Jack
  • T = ten
  • 9-2 represent their respective numbers.
  • The 2nd lowercase letter represents the suit, s = spades, c = clubs, h = hearts, and d = diamonds. So "Ks" represents the King of spades. If the suit is not specified, then it is not relevant to the hand.

Royal Flush

The five highest cards, the 10 through the Ace, all five of the same suit. Two or more people with royal flushes would tie. Example: Ah, Kh, Qh, Jh, Th.

Straight Flush

Any five cards of the same suit in consecutive numerical order. Our example shows a five-high straight flush. Example: 7c, 6c, 5c, 4c, 3c

Four of a Kind

Four cards of the same denomination. Example: 9, 9, 9, 9, A

Full House

Any three cards of the same denomination, plus any pair of a different denomination. Ties are broken first by the three of a kind, then the pair. Example: J, J, J, 7, 7

Flush

Any five non-consecutive cards of the same suit. Example: 2d, 9d, Ad, Kd, 9d

Straight

Any five consecutive cards of mixed suits. Ace can be high or low. Example: J, T, 9, 8, 7

Three of a Kind

Three cards of the same denomination. Example: 5, 5, A, T, 5

Two Pair

Any two cards of the same denomination, plus any other two cards of the same denomination. If both hands have the same high pair, the second pair wins. If both pairs tie, the high card wins. Example: A, A, T, T, J

Pair

Any two cards of the same denomination. In a tie, the high card wins. A, J, A, 9, 2

High Card

If no other hand is achieved, the highest card held wins. Then the next highest card, and so on. A, T, 9, 5, 4
