rank of poker hands explained This
page explains the ranks of hands and run from the best at
top to the lowest ranking hands and in hi lo poker games or
specifically low there is a description and example of these
types of hands
Royal Flush A royal flush is an ace high straight flush
Straight Flush A straight flush is a five-card straight,
all in the same suit.
Four of a Kind - Quads Quads, or four of a kind, are four
cards of equal
Full House or Full Boat A full house, or full boat,
contains a set (three) of cards of one rank and a pair of
another rank.
Flush A flush is any five cards, all of the same suit.
Straight Five cards of sequential rank. Every possible
straight will contain either a 5 or a 10.
Three of a Kind or Set Three cards of the same rank.
Two Pair A two pair is two cards of one rank and another
two cards of another rank
Pair One pair is two cards of the same rank
Some games are called Hi/Lo Games (Seven Card Stud Hi/Lo
and Omaha Hi/Lo) because to win the pot, not only do you
need to consider the rank of hands explained above (Hi) but
also the lowest hand (Lo). The pot is then split between two
winning hands: the high one and the low one. We've covered
the high hands above. A low hand is a hand that contains
five different cards inferior or equal to 8. Ex: A- 2- 4- 7-
8 PartyPoker.com offers two games where the pot is split
between the best high hand and the best low hand - Omaha
Hi/Lo and 7 Card Stud Hi/Lo. Hi/Lo games are played with an
'eight qualifier' for the low hand, where a player must have
five unpaired cards lower than eight in order to win the low
part of the pot. Straights and flushes do not count toward a
low hand, and aces are treated as the lowest card. Hands
with five cards of equal rank share the low pot equally,
regardless of suit. In Hi/Lo games, as played on
PartyPoker.com, the best possible low hand is a 5-high
straight, called a wheel or a bicycle. Should two or more
players have wheels/bicycles, the low portion of the pot is
split. All wheels/bicycles are equal regardless of suit. |
