All there is to know (Hands)

actually there are about 10 kinds hands right?
There are:


  • High Card
  • Pair
  • 2 Pair
  • 3 of a kind
  • straight
  • flush
  • full house
  • 4 of a kind
  • straight flush
  • Royal Flush



its a 100% to get a high card and 5% to get a Royal Flush...

High Card = 2 to Ace
Pair = 2 of Same Cards
2 Pairs = 2 hands of 2 of Same Cards
3 of a kind = 3 of Same cards
Straight = (2,3,4,5~K,Ace)of different symbols
Flush = 5 cards of Same Symbols
Full House = pair + 3 of a kind
4 of a kind = 4 of Same Cards
Straight Flush = Straight + Flush(2,3,4,5,6 Clubs)
Royal Flush = (10,J,Q,K,Ace) Same Symbols

--------------------------------------------------

There are a lot of Chances to get different kinds of Hands, But work Hard for it...

If you don't know what im talking about then you just wasted y our time reading this info

Happy to Help

Of course, a Royal Flush is just a big straight flush...

So you are saying that it I have a 5% chance of getting a royal flush? I've played over 100,000 hands live, and countless more online and have never had a royal. Am I just unlucky, or should we check these numbers?

Nice try but you need to check your math. Odds of hitting a royal flush are well well well below 1%

lmao @ Wiles.

The odds online are not (or should not) be different. It just seems like you are seeing larger hands more often because you are seeing MANY more hands an hour than you will in live play.

the odds are different because people online will call with more crap than in RL or for real money.

That is incorrect. The odds are the same no matter who plays what. The math involves the 52 card deck and doesn't change regardless of who is involved. I will post the math involved later if you are interested in it for real.

The odds are different because online companies change them slightly to make bad hands beat better hands occasionally to get the bad players feeling good and the good players losing money.
