Poker Hands You Can’t Live Without

There’s a saying that talks about how you “can’t live with ‘em, can’t live without ‘em”. But this is definitely not how it is with these poker hands. Any poker player, in fact, would truly be happy if they’re dealt with these hands. Learn more about the hands that only the best skills and the blessing of Lady Luck can deal you:

The best poker hand of all times would probably have to be the royal flush. It consists of the cards A, K, Q, J and 10 and all must be of the same suit. The odds on having this hand are very, very minimal so do your mama proud when you do get dealt with such a hand. Only the most inept of poker players will still be able to bungle with a hand like this.

Straight Flush – The second best poker hand you’ll probably ever hold between your fingers. It’s composed of any set of five cards that’s in consecutive order with no skips (6, 7, 8, 9 and 10) and that belongs once more in the same suit. If you and other poker players have straight flushes, ranking will be determined by judging the value of the highest card of the hand. If, for example, both of your straight flushes are from 6 to 10, with one having it in a suit of hearts while the other one is in spades, the suit of heart naturally wins over the one in spades.

Four of a kind – This poker hand is composed of four cards of the same value or number (eg. 4, 4, 4, 4) or possessing one specific card value in all suits.

Full House – A trio matched with a pair. The trio is naturally composed of three cards of the same value (whichever combination of suits do not matter) and a pair of cards, again of the same value. An example of this particular poker hand is Q, Q, Q and 9, 9. As ranking is determined by the three-card-set, the only full house hands that can beat this is those with a trio of kings or aces.

Naturally, poker hands like the royal flush, straight flush and four of a kind can always beat a full house. A skilled poker player can however win several hands with just a full house.

There are other poker hands that you can be dealt with like three of a kind but the four poker hands mentioned above are the most important. But remember, nothing is always foolproof so even with the best of poker hands, don’t let your emotions get the better of you.
