For those unfamiliar with poker rules and the game of Poker, along with others who might want a refresher, this is the most basic of basic poker. The various games are based on this.
- In poker, players form sets of five playing cards, called hands, according to the rules of the game. Each hand has a rank, which is compared against the ranks of other hands participating in the showdown to decide who wins the pot.
- What hands are rank highest in Poker. ABOUT CARDPLAYER, THE POKER AUTHORITY CardPlayer.com is the world's oldest and most well respected poker magazine and online poker guide.Since 1988.
Normal poker rules determine the strength of hands to be the higher value cards in the following order: Ace, King, Queen, Jack, Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Four, Three, and Two. The suit of each card does not determine any sort of strength in normal poker rules.
Poker is a game of five card hands dealt from a 52 card deck of standard playing cards. All poker hands consist of exactly five cards. Most games, like seven card stud for example, give the players more than five cards to select from, but the final winning result goes to the one with the best five card poker hand. In the popular stud poker games, the players are all dealt one card at a time or in small groups and they bet money each time they get more cards. They bet that they will end up with the best hand. The players that don't want to bet on their hands any longer can 'fold' their hands, get out of the contest and forfeit all the bets they have made to that point. At the end, the player with the best poker hand wins all the bets. In draw poker the players bet, then replace the cards they don't like with new ones from the dealer and then bet again.

Can you name thesePoker Legends?
In 1978, Doyle Brunson, two time winner of the 'World Championship of Poker' at Binions Horseshoe in Las Vegas, published probably the best ever written book on casino level poker games. This 600 page, 3 lb. volume is more like an encyclopedia reference than a typical poker book. The work is packed with sound professional advice with volumes of stats for advanced players and was strangely named 'How I Made Over $1,000,000 Playing Poker'. In reprint, it is now named 'Super System'.
For this classic, Brunson enlisted the services of some of the best professional poker players in the world, all champions in their own right, to collaborate the authoring of the game sections of their particular specialties. The cartoon of this world class poker game is shown on the books inside front cover. Here are the players and their game contributions.

INTRODUCTION TO POKER WITH TWO HANDS
There are several variations of Poker which utilize two hands in the game, such as Chinese Poker and Pai Gow Poker. Below are poker games which are played with two hands, although these instructions assume the reader is familiar with traditional Poker and the Poker Hand Rankings.
Open Face Chinese Poker, not to be confused with the variant of Chinese Poker mentioned above, is three hand poker- not two.
HENWAY
This is a split pot game is played with up to 5 players, each dealt 10 cards after placing an ante.
Players split the 10 cards into 2 five card hands. After the player’s hands are arranged, each player flips the top card of each of their hands over, so that it is visible. This is followed by a round of betting. This pattern of play continues for the second, third, and fourth cards in hand. Following the fourth round of betting, players reveal their hands. Highest ranking and lowest ranking hands split the pot evenly.
10 CARD REGRETS
Ten card regrets is also a split pot game that accommodates no more than five players. Players are dealt 10 cards each which are arranged into two five-card poker hands: on the left a low hand and on the right a high hand.
Printable Rules Of The Poker Hands
After placing an ante, players are dealt two cards at a time, face-down. After, they decide whether these cards are going to be a part of the left hand, the right hand, or one to each. After each player has had their turn there is a round of betting.
The deal repeats, and players are dealt another two card, followed by another round of betting.
This continues until each player has 2 five-card hands. Once a card is assigned to a hand it cannot be moved nor can the hands exceed five cards.
At showdown, the pot is split between the highest and lowest hands, they must be won by the proper corresponding hand, i.e. a right hand cannot win low hand.
COWPIE POKER
The deal and betting process is the same as Seven Card Stud.Seven card stud is simplified as, “two down, four up, one down,” which refers to the quantity and order of the way cards are dealt, with betting rounds in between each card.
After all the players have seven cards, they are split into a five card and a two card hand. Cards dealt face-up and face-down remain that way. The five card hand must be higher ranking than the two card hand and include at least one face-down card. A final betting round occurs and next is the showdown. The pot is to be split between the best five card and two card hands.
