The usual hierarchy of poker hands from highest to lowest runs as follows (standard poker hands are 🧾 in italics):[3]
Royal Flush : The highest straight flush, A-K-Q-J-10 suited.
: The highest straight flush, A-K-Q-J-10 suited. Skeet flush : The 🧾 same cards as a skeet (see below) but all in the same suit. [4]
: The same cards as a skeet 🧾 (see below) but all in the same suit. Straight flush : When wild cards are used, a wild card becomes 🧾 whichever card is necessary to complete the straight flush, or the higher of the two cards that can complete an 🧾 open-ended straight flush. For example, in the hand 10♠9♠(Wild) 7♠6♠, it becomes the 8♠, and 🧾 in the hand (Wild) Q♦ J♦ 10♦ 9♦ , it plays as the K♦ (even though the 8♦ would also 🧾 make a straight flush).
