What Are the Names of Poker Hands?

Poker hands are typically represented by five cards, with each card having a rank and a suit. The rank of a card is its position in order from highest to Lowest. The suits of a card are clubs, diamonds, hearts, spades.

A hand may be composed of any combination of these five cards, with the exception of two of the same rank and suit. For example, a hand may be either four cards of clubs, or two cards of clubs and two cards of spades.

The highest ranking card in a hand is the Ace, followed by two 2s, three 3s, four 4s, five 5s. The Lowest ranking card is the 10th card (10), which is also the Ace’s partner.
