Royal Flush
The best hand in Poker - comprising of Ace, King, Queen, Jack and Ten of the same suit. (650,000-1)
Straight Flush
Five cards in consecutive numerical order and all the same suit. The higher the numerical value of cards the better the hand. (72,000-1)
Four of a kind
Four cards of the same rank, for example four Queens. (4,200-1)
Full house
A combination of a pair of cards of the same rank and three cards of the same rank. The Three of a Kind counts first, so a Full House of Tens full of Fives (10,10,10 + 5,5) beats a Full House of Fives full of Tens (5,5,5 + 10,10) (700-1)
Flush
Five cards of the same suit, for example five spades (510-1)
Straight
Five cards in consecutive numerical order, but of mixed suit. An ace can be used as both a high and low card. (250-1)
Three of a Kind
Three of a Kind consists of three cards of the same rank. (48-1)
Two Pairs
Two sets of cards of the same rank. When comparing hands with two pairs, the hand with the highest pair wins (21-1)
A Pair
This hand is simply a pair of cards of the same rank, for example two Twos. If the pairs are equal, compare the highest ranking odd cards from each hand (2.4-1)
High Card
In the absence of any of the above hands, the highest card held by a player wins the hand. The highest card is an Ace
