The highest ranking hand always wins, regardless of what is on the table. If a player has a flush, it will beat the straight.

How do you play ShowHand?

ShowHand is essentially 5 card stud played mainly in China and Hong Kong. A major variation is the order in which third street and later cards are dealt, where the player with the strongest hand showing is dealt first, and also first to act. On fifth street the player with the strongest potential hand showing (ie. 4 clubs 'represents' a flush) is first to act. The only other variation is the strength of the A2345 straight and straight flush, which is considered the highest possible straight and straight flush respectively. A player announces Showhand when the player is all in. While this variation of 5 card stud is still played in Asia today, 5 card stud has declined in the western world where it has been replaced by 7 card stud and Texas Hold'em.


What beats four aces and a king?

A straight flush and a royal flush if you are talking about poker. Edit: The only thing that will beat this particular hand is a straight flush or a royal flush. However, if you are physically holding all of these cards, a straight flush is all that can beat this. The reason behind this is because a royal flush requires an ace with the same suit. Since you are holding all of the aces, there will not be a royal flush against you. ----- In some poker-playing groups, when playing with wild cards, you could potentially have five of a kind, which even beats a straight flush. And of course a royal flush is just one particular straight flush (with ace on top instead of a lower card on top); it would also be beaten by five of a kind.

What is the actual chance of a simple cell forming?

Probability is useless here because you figure probability from the present to the past, which is wrong. Rather like saying; " what is the probability of me drawing a straight flush in this deal of cards? " The cards were dealt and you received a straight flush. The direct analogy is, the " cards ' of life were dealt and we now have cells that go from simple to complex. This is a common and mistaken creationist tactic. Ask any mathematician.

What are the odds of 4 of a kind and royal flush in same game?

Assuming that they are the only two hands being dealt, that each player gets five cards each only, and that there is no switching (because otherwise the maths gets too complicated): * The odds of the first player getting a royal flush are four in 311875200, or one in 78 million (1/77968800 to be precise). This comes from the fact that there are 311875200 possible hands for the first player (52 x 51 x 50 x 49 x 48), four of which may be a royal flush. * There are also 36 possible straight flushes (10 per suit, but one of each of those is a royal flush as well). For the second player, this number is reduced to 32 possible straight flushes (because four of those 36 use at least one card that has already been given to the first player). * However there are fewer possible hands for the second player; about 184 million in total. This gives the second player a 32 in 184072680, or one in 5752271.25 (1/5.7 million). * The probability of the first player getting a royal flush and the second player getting a straight flush, in the same deal, then, is 1 in 448497686637000; one in every 448 trillion deals or so. However this does not cover the chances of the first player having the straights and the second getting the royals, so: * The chance of the first player getting a straight flush is 36 out of 311875200, or one in 8.7 million (1/8663200). The chance of the second player getting the royals after that is four in 184072680, or one in 46018170 (1/46 million).* * Multiplying these together, we get the chance of the first getting the straights and the second having the royals; it comes out as about one of every 399 trillion deals or so (actually 1 in 398664610344000). * Adding these probabilities together, we get the chance of one player having a straight flush and one having a royal flush; this number is 847162296981000 in 178800155483325020773128000000 or one in every 211 trillion (1/211057734888000) hands. *See discussion.
