Ranking and Scoring Poker Hands
Information about Ranking and Scoring Poker Hands - Poker Casinos Guides
 Most casino poker hands comprise just five playing cards and are ranked according to specific poker rules. The highest ranking playing card in poker is always the ace, following in a logical order, first by the court cards of king, queens and jacks, and then the numbered poker playing cards, in a descending order. In the game of poker, 2s are always ranked as the lowest playing card.
Poker hands are ranked in the following order:- Poker Ranking: Royal Flush - ace, king, queen, jack and 10, all in the same suit (all suits are ranked equally)
- Poker Ranking: Straight Flush - all five cards in the same suit, numbered consecutively (straight flushes with higher value cards are ranked highest)
- Poker Ranking: Four of a Kind - four cards of the same value, together with any other card (four aces rank as the highest four of a kind)
- Poker Ranking: Full House - three cards of the same value (known as three of a kind), together with two cards of the same value (known as a pair)
- Poker Ranking: Flush - five cards of the same suit, in any order (higher value cards in flushes rank highest)
- Poker Ranking: Straight - five cards of any suit, in a numerical order (Ace, King, Queen, Jack, Ten is the highest possible straight)
- Poker Ranking: Three of a Kind - three cards of the same value, and any other two cards (three aces in three of a kind ranks highest)
- Poker Ranking: Two Pairs - two pairs of cards, together with another card (identical hands outrank each other depending upon the value of the single card, with ace being the highest value)
- Poker Ranking: One Pair - two cards of the same value (a pair of aces ranks highest and a pair of 2s ranks lowest)
- Poker Ranking: Highest Card - lowest ranking hand, where no other hands are held, the highest value card wins (ace high ranks highest)
