What Beats What in Poker?

There is no single answer to this question since the best hands vary depending on the situation and the opponents you are playing against. However, some general rules of thumb that can help you make better decisions when playing poker include:

When playing against weaker opponents, it is generally better to play hands with higher card values (e.g. a three-of-a-kind over a two-pair).

Against stronger opponents, it is often wiser to play hands with lower card values (e.g. a two-pair over a full house).

It is also important to understand what “possible” hands your opponents could be holding (i.e. not what they actually are holding), as this can affect how you should play your hand.
