Poker Hands From Best To Worst
And you keep putting in chips so you can stay in the hand, hoping that card WILL come along and you will have the winning hand, and that you will walk away from the casino with the pot. The trouble is, the odds of getting that perfect poker hand is often a lot lower than you might think. Paul Phua says that to start with, you will have to play 30, poker hands before you get dealt a Royal Flush. But, there are few people who will ever play 30, poker hands in their life, so this mythical poker hand which beats all others will stay just that — a myth — for the vast majority of poker players. Even getting a start at that hand — being dealt Ace King suited — only happens one time in hands of poker. All that would make you happy is just to be dealt a pair of Aces. Not going to be that unusual huh? In a casino game of Texas Holdem with six players, there are more than a quadrillion different hand combinations dealt at the start of the poker game. It shows you how skilled those poker stars are that have a sixth sense of what cards their opponents are holding. Unless you bluff successfully of course!

Royal Flush is a solitaire card game which is played with a deck of 52 playing cards. The game is so called because the aim of the game is to end up with a royal flush of any suit. First, the deck is dealt into five piles: two piles of eleven cards and three piles of ten. The player first turns the first pile up and looks for either an ace, a ten, a king, a queen, and a jack, cards which comprise a royal flush. Once such a card is found, the search ends there, with the cards on top of it discarded and those under it left alone. The search then proceeds into the next pile and the search for other cards in the royal flush continues. Also, the suit of the first card found determines the suit of the entire royal flush.
The Royal Flush is top on the list of poker hand rankings. This is the strongest possible hand in poker and can never be beaten. It is made when we have the Ace-high straight while holding cards all of the same suit. In a card deck there are only 4 possible royal flush combinations and they are all ranked equally.
