This is when you have an ace, King, Queen, Jack and 10, all of the same suit.
Five cards in a row, of the same suit. An example: 6, 7, 8, 9 and a 10 of hearts.
Four cards that are the same. For instance, an eight of clubs, eight of hearts, eight of diamonds and an eight of spades.
Three of a kind, along with two of a kind. So, three Kings, and 2 Jacks would be a full house. Or you might hear it be said as "Kings full of Jacks."
Five cards of the same suit. So, eight of hearts, nine of hearts, Jack of hearts, Queen of hearts, and an ace of hearts. This would be known as an "ace high flush."
Five cards in a sequence. For instance, an 8, 9, 10, Jack and a Queen.
Three cards that are the same. For instance, an eight of hearts, eight of spades, and eight of clubs.
Two separate pairs. For instance, an eight of clubs and spades, and a 9 of clubs and spades.
Two cards that are the same. For instance, an eight of hearts and an eight of diamonds.
This is when you don't have anything. For instance, if you had a king and an ace and couldn't make anything out of the community cards, you would have an ace high card."
