If you want to play poker successfully, you must be aware of all its rules. One of the essential poker rules is hand rankings. The poker hands are ranked in a specific order that you need to follow while playing poker. Here, we will make you aware of the different poker hands. We have ranked them in the order of highest to lowest.
Royal Flush
The first in the list that tops the chart is the Royal Flush. It is the highest poker card sequence. It contains the cards that are Ace, King, Queen, Jack, and 10. These cards have to be of the same suit of spades or hearts or diamonds or clubs, to claim the royal flush prize. It is tough to make this hand due to its low probability.
Straight Flush
The next best hand as per the poker hands is Straight Flush. It is a continuous sequence that needs five cards of the same suit. To give you an example, you can have a straight flush of 9, 8, 7, 6, and 5.
Four of a Kind
One of the other best hands as per the hand ranking list is Quad or Four of a Kind. In this hand rank, you must have four cards of the same rank. So, if you have four kings or four Qs or four 2s, you can have a quad. The remaining fifth card can be of a different rank, such as a 3.
Full House
Fourth on the list is Full House. If you happen to make a combination of three cards of one rank and a pair of another rank, then you can claim this poker hand. AAAKK is the biggest Full House. If two players have the same cards, the player with the highest triple hand of the two will become the winner.
Flush
The Flush is another poker hand that contains five cards of the same suit. To give an example, if you have K, 10, 9, 8, 7 of hearts, it is a Flush. In case two players have a Flush, then High Card will decide the winner of the game.
Straight
If you have consecutive cards of different suits, then it is a straight poker hand. The biggest straight is high Straight, and the lowest straight is a five-high straight.
Three of a Kind
Three of a kind is a hand in which you have three cards of the same rank. Three aces with a king and a queen are the best possible Three of a Kind. If two players have the same Three of a Kind, the side card will determine the winner.
Two Pair
Two Pair is when you have two cards of the same rank, and another set has two cards of the same rank.
If two players have the 2 pair, then the second Pair will decide who is the winner of the game.
One Pair
When you have two cards of the same rank and three other cards, then it is One Pair. The card sequence AAKQJ is the highest One Pair.
High-card
In a high card, an ace is the highest and seven the lowest.
Inference
So, this is the poker hand order for you. If you want to play poker games, then you must know all of these.
