The standard -card deck consists of cards divided into suits: clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades. For each suit there are ranks: , , , , , , , , , jack, queen, king and ace, listed from the lowest to the highest.
A card is denoted by its rank (2
…9
for , T
for , J
for
jack, Q
for queen, K
for king, and A
for ace) followed by its suit
(C
for clubs, D
for diamonds, H
for hearts, and S
for spades).
Cards are partially ordered by their ranks. The suit does not play a
role in the card's ordering.
A Poker hand is a set of five distinct cards. Each hand is said to have a certain ranking. A hand with a higher ranking beats a hand with a lower one. Two hands of the same ranking are compared using a tie-breaking rule specific for their ranking - either one of them beats the other or they are tied.
The list of poker rankings is given below, from the worst ranking to the best ranking. If a hand satisfies several rankings, only the best one is considered.
- High Card - Does not fit into any ranking below. When comparing with
another High Card hand, the ranks of the highest cards in the two
hands are first compared. If there is a tie, the second highest
cards in each hand are compared, and so on. (Example:
QS
,JH
,9C
,7H
,3D
) - One Pair - Two cards of the same rank. Pair with higher rank beats
the lower pair. In case of a tie, the remaining three cards are used
as tie-breakers, compared in the descending order of their ranks (as
in High Card). (Example:
6D
,6H
,QD
,9H
,4S
) - Two Pairs - Two pairs of cards of the same rank. When comparing with
another Two Pairs hand, the higher pair is first compared, then the
lower pair, and finally the rank of the fifth remaining card.
(Example:
JH
,JS
,TS
,TD
,8S
) - Three of a Kind - Three cards of the same rank. Three-of-a-kind with
the higher rank beats the lower one. In case of a tie, the remaining
two cards are used as tie-breakers, compared in the descending
order. (Example:
5S
,5H
,5D
,JH
,6D
) - Straight - Five cards in consecutive rank. An ace can either be
accounted above a king or below a two, but not both, so wrapping is
not allowed. Two straights are compared using the rank of the
highest card (in the case of
A
,2
,3
,4
,5
, the highest card is considered to be5
). (Example:QH
,JC
,TH
,9D
,8D
) - Flush - Five cards of the same suit. When comparing two Flushes, the
rank of the highest card is first considered, then the second
highest and so on (as in High Card). (Example:
AS
,JS
,8S
,6S
,5S
) - Full House - Three cards of the same rank, and two cards of the same
rank. When comparing with another Full House, the rank of the three
cards is first compared, then the rank of the two cards. (Example:
7S
,7H
,7C
,JC
,JH
) - Four of a Kind - Four cards of the same rank. Two four-of-a-kinds
are first compared by the ranks of the four cards. In case of a tie,
the rank of the fifth card is used as a tie-breaker. (Example:
4C
,4D
,4H
,4S
,TD
) - Straight Flush - A hand that is both a Straight and a Flush. Same
tie-breaker as for a Straight. (Example:
TH
,9H
,8H
,7H
,6H
)
