What Is the Hierarchy of Cards in Poker?

The hierarchy of cards in poker is as follows: Ace, King, Queen, Jack, Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Four, Three, Two. This hierarchy is not absolute – a card can be higher or lower in rank depending on the situation.

For example, if you have a two-card hand with an ace and a king and the ace is higher in rank than the king, you would play the ace first.
