    Beginners Guide-cards from highest to lowest

    A five-card vying game is one where, no matter how many cards may be dealt to each player, the only valid combinations are those of five cards. In orthodox Poker these are, from highest to lowest:

    straight flush (five cards in suit and sequence, Ace high or low, as heartAKQJ10 or spade5432A)
    four of a kind, fours (four cards of the same rank and one idler, as K-K-K-K-x)
    full house (three of one rank and two of another, as Q-Q-Q-4-4)
    flush (five cards in suit but not in sequence, as heartJ-heart9-heart8-heart7-heart3)
    straight (five cards in sequence but not in suit, as spade10-spade9-diamond8-club7-heart6)
    three of a kind, threes, triplet, trips (three of the same rank plus two of two different ranks, as 7-7-7-x-y)
    two pair (as Q-Q-9-9-x)
    one pair (as 3-3-x-y-z)
    high card (no combination: as between two such hands the one with the highest card wins)
