Poker Hands
There are many ways to organize and do a Poker Run or Poker Run Tour. Always ask the people promoting the ride what their rules and policies are.
At every Poker Run or Poker Run Tour promoted by Sonny Productions, Carolina Motorcycle Tours, Motorcycle Poker Runs, or Chopper Road Shows, we keep the ride relaxing, interesting and enjoyable.
We use the standard 5 card hand on all our rides. All cards in poker are ranked, or valued, in the following order. From lowest to highest in each suite: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen, King and Ace.
I have listed the lowest hand to the highest hand below.
High Card: In a poker hand with no winning combinations of cards, the high card wins. That card is determined by the ranking above.
One Pair: Two cards of the same value with three extra cards that do not combine in any desirable way.
Two Pair: Two pairs of cards with the same value each pair having a different value. One extra card is present.
Three of a Kind: Three cards of the same value with the remaining two cards not combining in any desirable way.
Straight: Five cards of sequential value and differing "suits" (spades, clubs, hearts or diamonds).
Flush: Five cards of the same suit that are not all sequential.
Full House: Three cards of one value, and two cards of another value, sometimes called a "full boat".
Four of a Kind: Four cards of the same value with one extra card present.
Straight Flush: Five sequential cards of the same suit.
Royal Flush: A Straight Flush that consists of the five highest value cards, 10, Jack, Queen, King and Ace.
A Royal Flush is the best hand you can get in straight 5 card poker. A High Card is the lowest had you can get. Enjoy and have fun / Sonny
