v~uible. Five of a Kind is the
best
hand there I>. (1:s ipelevant in
this
computer
game, but in competition with other players, when there's more than one
me of a Ki$ hand,the one with
the highest rank wins. That is, five Aces beat five Kings,
f~e Wens beat
fii
Sixes,
,
and
so
on.)
Royal Flush
A
Straight Flush that is "Ace high"- [Ace, King Queen, Jack, 101 -is called a Royal flush; this is best hand
short of
Five of a Kind.
Straight Flush
A Straight flush is good as it gets without special rules or Wild Cards. This is having fne cards in order (like
[2,
3.4.
5,
61) and all of them are in the same suit. (Remember, Aces can be high or low.) One last thing
-
there is no such thing as a wrap-around straight. A hand like
[3,2,
Ace, King, Queen] is not a straight.
Four of a Kind
his one is exactly what it sounds like, four cards of the same rank. (Again, it's irrelevant in the computer
game, but if you're playing with other people and there's more than one Four of a Kind hand, the one with
the highest rank wins. If by some freak chance
-
W~ld Cards and variations -there are two or more with
the same rank, then the hand with the highest ranked fifth card, the
"Off
Card" or "High Card", wins.)
