| Royal Flush |      | A straight from a ten to an ace with all five cards of the same suit. In poker all suits are ranked equally. |
| Straight Flush |      | Any straight with all five cards of the same suit. |
| Four of a Kind |    | Any four cards of the same rank. If two players share the same Four of a Kind, the bigger fifth card (known as the kicker) decides who wins the pot. |
| Full House |  | Any three cards of the same rank together with any two cards of the same rank. Our example shows "Aces full of Kings" and it is a bigger full house than "Kings full of Aces." |
| Flush |     | Any five cards of the same suit (not consecutive). The highest card of the five determines the rank of the flush. Our example shows an Ace-high flush, which is the highest possible. |
| Straight |    | Any five consecutive cards of different suits. Aces can count as either a high or a low card. Our example shows a five-high straight, which is the lowest possible straight. |
| Three of a Kind |  | Any three cards of the same rank. Our example shows three-of-a-kind Aces, with a King and a Queen as side cards – the best possible three of a kind. |
| Two Pair |    | Any two cards of the same rank together with another two cards of the same rank. Our example shows the best possible two-pair, Aces and Kings. The highest pair of the two determines the rank of the two-pair. |
| One Pair |  | Any two cards of the same rank. Our example shows the best possible one-pair hand. |
| High Card |    | Any hand not in the above-mentioned hands. Our example shows the best possible high-card hand. |
