Your Questions About Poker Rules
William asks…
Poker rules. What is higher a straight or a flush.?
admin answers:
Actually, Meister is wrong. A full house also beats a flush. Here are the ranks of hands, from lowest to highest.
High card: highest card of five when there is no pattern.
Pair: two cards of the same rank, like two aces or two fours.
Two pair: two different pairs of cards, like two aces and two sixes.
Three of a kind: just like it sounds like. Three cards of the same rank, like three tens.
Straight: five cards, not of the same suit, in sequential order.
Flush: five cards of the same suit.
Full house: a three of a kind and a pair in the same five-card hand
Four of a kind: four cards the same rank.
Straight flush: five cards, in sequential order, of the same suit.
Royal flush: the five highest ranked cards (ten, jack, queen, king, ace) all of the exact same suit.

anyone know poker rules?
in poker does a straight of 8 9 10 jack queen king beat a straight of 8 9 10 jack queen, and a pair of 3’s?
help. thanks so much
admin answers:
In poker at showdown, you make the best hand with the best 5 cards, and 5 cards only, and these cards speak for themselves. NO other cards are used.
In this case one player has straight 8,9,10,J,Q and the other player has a straight, 9, 10, J, Q, K. The straight to the King is the higher straight and wins the hand and the pot.
Good Luck!

I want to know because I know the basic rules and I play it on facebook but on facebook there are 2 cards that apear by my picture and not on the table, I think they are called the comunity cards what are they for and do they count in the main hand?
admin answers:
The five community cards are known as the flop (first three cards), turn (4th card), and river (5th card).
Each player has 2 pocket cards to use to make the best 5-card hand using a combination of the community and pocket cards.
You can try to deduce what cards other players hold by watching how they bet – for example, to see if they hold a 3rd Ace, or part of a straight, etc.
