Online Video Poker Hands From Best To Worst
Most people are familiar with regular poker, but don't really know the order of the hands or the value. This is the most common reason why people don't play poker online, and it's a shame since the game itself can be one of the casino's most rewarding offerings. So without further ado, here's the order of best to worst when it comes to video poker hands.

Royal Flush
Ace, K Q J and Ten, all of a like suit.

Straight Flush
Getting five consecutive cards, all of the same suit (e.g. 6 7 8 9 10 of Hearts).

Four of a Kind
Four of the same card, such as four Aces.


Full House
A full house is having one pair and three of a kind.

Flush
A flush is having all cards of the same suit - Aces, Spades, Hearts or Diamonds - though they do not have to be in any particular order.

Straight
Five cards in consecutive order, though they may be of different suits.

Three of a Kind
Three of the same cards, like three 10's.

Two Pair
Having more than one pair, i.e. 2 sets of two of the same card, like a pair of 6's and a pair of Jacks.

Pair
Two cards in your hand are the same value. In different versions of poker this may constitute the minimum hand, such as Jacks or Better - requiring you to have at least 2 Jacks to have a winning hand.

(Nothing) - You lose !
If you lose, the original wager in credits is deducted from your current total.
