Straight flush
Five cards of the same suit in sequence, excluding the royal flush.
Rank 2 of 10 poker hands.
How it’s made
- Five cards of the same suit in numerical sequence (other than 10-J-Q-K-A).
- Ace-2-3-4-5 (the wheel) also counts if all five share a suit.
Example hand
9♥ 8♥ 7♥ 6♥ 5♥
Odds
- 0.0014%（1 in 72,193）
- 36 out of 2,598,960 possible 5-card hands
Breaking ties between the same hand
- Compare the highest card in the sequence; 10-9-8-7-6 beats 9-8-7-6-5.
Common mistakes
- In A-2-3-4-5, the ace counts as low; the hand's rank is determined by the 5, not the ace.
