Poker is an exciting game of luck and sheer skills. In Poker, each player creates a set of five playing’s, i.e., Poker hands. Each Poker hand in the game has a Poker hand ranking that is compared against the competitor’s rank in order to decide who is the winner. In high games like Texas Holdem and Seven-card stud the Texas Holdem winning hand emerges as the champion. According to the Poker hand rules, there are ten hand rankings that determine the ultimate winner against the others.

There is no “3 pair” hand rank in poker. When playing Texas Hold’em it’s technically possible to have three pairs, but since a poker hand only consists of 5 cards only the 2 highest pairs are in play. For example, if you hold Q-J and the board reads Q-J-6-A-A you only have two pair: Aces and Queens. Each hand has a rank, which is compared against the ranks of other hands participating in the showdown to decide who wins the pot. In high games, like Texas hold 'em and seven-card stud, the highest-ranking hands win. In low games, like razz, the lowest-ranking hands win. Knowing what beats what in poker or Texas Hold’em is an important early step in learning the game. To help you out, I have provided for you an attractive printable or downloadable “cheat sheet” for both 5 card hand rankings as well as top 24 pre-flop starting hands.
