combination a player can make. In Texas Hold\u2019em, those five cards may\n        come from both hole cards, one hole card, or entirely from the five\n        community cards.\n      <\/p>\n\n      <p>\n        The ranking order remains the same at showdown: a straight flush beats\n        four of a kind, four of a kind beats a full house, and the sequence\n        continues down to high card. When two players hold the same category,\n        card values and kickers determine whether one hand wins or the pot is\n        split.\n      <\/p>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <aside class=\"ph-showdown-card\">\n      <span>Quick showdown rule<\/span>\n      <strong>Best Five Cards Win<\/strong>\n\n      <div class=\"ph-showdown-row\">\n        <span>Available cards<\/span>\n        <strong>Up to 7<\/strong>\n      <\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"ph-showdown-row\">\n        <span>Cards used<\/span>\n        <strong>Exactly 5<\/strong>\n      <\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"ph-showdown-row\">\n        <span>Unused cards<\/span>\n        <strong>Ignored<\/strong>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/aside>\n\n  <\/div>\n\n  <nav class=\"ph-jump-links\" aria-label=\"Poker hand guide sections\">\n\n    <a href=\"#ph-ranking\">\n      <strong>Hand Ranking<\/strong>\n      <span>Royal flush to high card<\/span>\n    <\/a>\n\n    <a href=\"#ph-ties\">\n      <strong>Tie Rules<\/strong>\n      <span>Kickers and comparisons<\/span>\n    <\/a>\n\n    <a href=\"#ph-holdem\">\n      <strong>Texas Hold\u2019em<\/strong>\n      <span>Seven cards, best five<\/span>\n    <\/a>\n\n    <a href=\"#ph-examples\">\n      <strong>Examples<\/strong>\n      <span>Showdown decisions<\/span>\n    <\/a>\n\n    <a href=\"#ph-mistakes\">\n      <strong>Common Mistakes<\/strong>\n      <span>Errors when reading hands<\/span>\n    <\/a>\n\n  <\/nav>\n\n  <h2 id=\"ph-ranking\">Poker Hand Rankings from Strongest to Weakest<\/h2>\n\n  <div class=\"ph-rank-stack\">\n\n    <section class=\"ph-rank ph-rank-top\">\n      <div class=\"ph-rank-number\">1<\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"ph-rank-name\">\n        <strong>Royal Flush<\/strong>\n        <span>Highest possible straight flush<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"ph-rank-rule\">\n        Ace, king, queen, jack and ten in the same suit.\n      <\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"ph-cards\" aria-label=\"Royal flush example\">\n        <span class=\"ph-card ph-card-red\">A\u2665<\/span>\n        <span class=\"ph-card ph-card-red\">K\u2665<\/span>\n        <span class=\"ph-card ph-card-red\">Q\u2665<\/span>\n        <span class=\"ph-card ph-card-red\">J\u2665<\/span>\n        <span class=\"ph-card ph-card-red\">10\u2665<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n\n    <section class=\"ph-rank\">\n      <div class=\"ph-rank-number\">2<\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"ph-rank-name\">\n        <strong>Straight Flush<\/strong>\n        <span>Five consecutive cards, same suit<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"ph-rank-rule\">\n        Ranked by the highest card in the sequence.\n      <\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"ph-cards\" aria-label=\"Straight flush example\">\n        <span class=\"ph-card\">9\u2663<\/span>\n        <span class=\"ph-card\">8\u2663<\/span>\n        <span class=\"ph-card\">7\u2663<\/span>\n        <span class=\"ph-card\">6\u2663<\/span>\n        <span class=\"ph-card\">5\u2663<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n\n    <section class=\"ph-rank\">\n      <div class=\"ph-rank-number\">3<\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"ph-rank-name\">\n        <strong>Four of a Kind<\/strong>\n        <span>Four cards of one rank<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"ph-rank-rule\">\n        The four-card rank is compared first, followed by the kicker.\n      <\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"ph-cards\" aria-label=\"Four of a kind example\">\n        <span class=\"ph-card\">K\u2663<\/span>\n        <span class=\"ph-card ph-card-red\">K\u2666<\/span>\n        <span class=\"ph-card ph-card-red\">K\u2665<\/span>\n        <span class=\"ph-card\">K\u2660<\/span>\n        <span class=\"ph-card\">4\u2663<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n\n    <section class=\"ph-rank\">\n      <div class=\"ph-rank-number\">4<\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"ph-rank-name\">\n        <strong>Full House<\/strong>\n        <span>Three of a kind plus one pair<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"ph-rank-rule\">\n        Compare the three-card rank first.
