Hand Ranks:
When you are dealt replacement cards for your discards, your new hand is evaulated. Based on what kind of hand you're holding, you'll receive a certain number of points. Hands are listed below, from best (highest scoring), to worst (no score): * Royal Flush - 2000 points A straight flush, with the Ace high. In other words, a Ten, Jack, Queen, King and Ace, all of the same suit. * Straight Flush - 250 points A straight flush. In other words, all five cards are consecutive and are the same suit. For example: Three of Clubs, Four of Clubs, Five of Clubs, Six of Clubs and Seven of Clubs. * Four of a Kind - 125 points Four cards of the same value. (Obviously, each of different suits.) * Full House - 40 points A three of a kind and a pair at the same time. * Flush - x 25 points All cards in your hand are the same suit. * Straight - 20 points All five cards are consecutive. For example: Three of Clubs, Four of Spades, Five of Clubs, Six of Diamonds, and Seven of Hearts. * Three of a Kind - 15 points Three cards of the same value. * Two Pair - 10 points Two pairs of cards. In other words, two cards in your hand are the same value, and two other cards in your hand are also the same value. * Pair - 5 points Two cards in your hand are the same value. In this version, they must be Jacks or better! * None of the Above - 0 points Each turn "costs" 5 points, so if you get a pair, no points actually end up added to your total score. If you don't get anything, you actually lose five points! This is just how handheld and Vegas video poker games work!
