Regardless of the rules you choose, the objective of Poker is to maximize your winnings with the best hand possible. This is done by maximizing your odds of hitting a hand that beats the house. Poker can be played socially for pennies or professionally for thousands of dollars. You can play poker in any country where cards are commonly played, including the United States and the United Kingdom.
A full house is a hand comprised of three aces and two 6s. A royal flush is a hand comprised of five cards of the same suit, and the odds are 1 in almost 650,000. A pair is a hand comprised of two cards of the same rank, and a straight is a hand comprised of five cards in sequence.
A no pair hand is a hand comprised of no cards of the same rank. The most common no pair poker hand is a straight. It is comprised of five cards of the same suit, in descending order, and is considered the highest possible hand in the game.
A two pair poker hand is a hand comprising of two cards of the same rank and another pair of cards of a different rank. The two pairs can be of any rank, but the ranking of the next card determines who wins. The aforementioned is not the most important poker hand.
A no-show is a hand that does not make the cut, and thus does not contribute to the pot. A straight flush is a hand comprised of five consecutive cards of the same suit, and is considered the best possible hand in the game. It is not as uncommon as one might think. A royal straight flush is also a hand comprised of five cards of a single suit, but the odds of winning this hand are less than impressive.

A full house is a hand containing three aces and two 6s. It is a common mistake to assume that a full house is a single-hand combination of three cards of the same rank and two cards of another rank. The best full house is a hand comprised of two aces, one six, and one seven.
