Encyclopedia > Five of a kind

Five of a kind is a poker hand such as A♠ A♣ A♥ A♦ (Wild), which contains five cards of the same rank (only possible in wild card games). It ranks above all other poker hands.


Higher ranking sets of five defeat lower ranking sets. (If this ever comes up in your game, you are playing with way too many wild cards).

Hand (poker) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1109 words)
In games where more than five cards are available to each player, hands are ranked by choosing some five-card subset according to the rules of the game, and comparing that five-card hand against the five-card hands of the other players.
An additional hand type, five of a kind, exists when wild cards are used.
Five of a kind outranks the straight flush (and therefore the royal flush too) making it the most valuable hand.
Five of a kind - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (108 words)
Five of a kind is a poker hand such as A♠ A♣
, which contains five cards of the same rank (only possible in wild card games in which wild cards may be cards that already exist in the hand).
Since the general rule is that poker hands only have five cards come into play, there are no kickers to further break any ties.
