  • Hand rankings

    Hand rankings

    Learn the Different Hands in Poker, from a high Card to a Royal Flush.

    In poker, the value of your hand is everything. Understanding hand rankings is the key to making the right decisions at the table. Whether you’re playing Texas Hold’em or Omaha, knowing the strength of your hand will help you determine how to bet, raise, or fold.
    It’s important to note that every poker hand consists of 5 cards. While players may have additional cards dealt to them (like hole cards in Texas Hold’em), the final hand is always determined by the best 5-card combination.
    Here’s a breakdown of the different hands in poker, ranked from the lowest to the highest:

  • What is a Kicker in Poker?

    What is a Kicker in Poker?

    In poker, the kicker is an important concept that can often be the deciding factor in a hand when players have the same hand ranking

    A kicker is the next highest card in your hand that is used to break ties when two players have the same main hand.
    How Does the Kicker Work?
    When two players have hands of the same rank (for example, both players have a pair, two pair, or three of a kind), the kicker is used to determine the winner. The kicker is the highest card that doesn’t contribute to the main hand.

    In poker, hole cards are the private cards dealt to each player, which are only visible to that player. In most games, like Texas Hold’em, each player receives two hole cards at the beginning of the game. These cards are a critical part of the strategy, as players must combine them with the community cards (if applicable) to form the best possible hand.
