The hands, best to worst
You make a hand from seven cards: your two plus the five in the middle. Only the best five count. A hand higher on this list beats every hand below it.
In the game, you can see this list any time. Open the menu and choose Which hand wins.

Good to know
- The ace can be high or low in a straight. A♣ 2♦ 3♥ 4♠ 5♣ is the lowest straight.
- All suits are worth the same. A heart never beats a spade.
- Do two players have the same hand? Then the other cards decide. A pair of tens with an ace beats a pair of tens with a king.
- Still exactly the same? Then the chips are shared.

All in
All in means you put in all your chips. After that, you don't have to choose anything else. You stay in the hand until the cards are shown. If your hand wins, you take the chips. If it loses, you have no chips left.
In Play, you then sit back in with 1,000 chips. In Play until one stack, you are out of the game.
Side pile
Sometimes a player goes all in with fewer chips than the others. That player can only win as many chips from each player as they put in. The extra chips go into a Side pile. Only the players who put chips into the side pile can win it.
Here is an example. Leo goes all in with 100 chips. You and Mira each put in 300. The Main pile gets 300 chips: 100 from each of you three. Leo, Mira or you can win it. The Side pile gets the other 400 chips. Only you or Mira can win that one.
If nobody can match the extra chips of a big stack, those chips go back to their owner.
