Learn how to play poker. This is site is meant as a basic starter into the rules of poker, for more information, I have other links to more advanced poker and strategies at the bottom of the screen. Believe me, at the very least please read these sites, it is just too expensive to learn the hard way. The Basics Poker is played from a standard pack of 52 cards.
All poker hands contain five cards, the highest hand wins.
Some games have Wild Cards, which can take on whatever suit and rank their possessor desires. However, a straight may not 'wraparound'. Four of a Kind Four of a kind is simply four cards of the same rank. The hand with the higher-rank four of a kind wins, if by chance there are 2 or more hands with 4 of a kind. When hands tie on the rank of a pair, three of a kind, etc, the cards outside break ties following the High Card rules.
