POKER HAND RANKSIf you are a beginner, you should first take the time to learn the ranking of poker hands. Royal Flush:The five highest cards in a suit- ace, king, queen, jack, and ten, all of the same suit. If you get this hand, put on your best poker Face and let the money pour in. Straight Flush:Any five cards of the same suit that are in consecutive order. Not as grand as a Royal Flush, but still a great hand to get. Four of a Kind:Four cards of the same number or face. This is still a rare hand to get. Go ahead and bet high, in order for someone to beat you they would have to have a higher 4 of a kind, straight flush, or royal flush.
