Compare hand category first, then the ranks within that category. Choose the table’s Ace convention before comparing A-K-Q with A-2-3.
Compare two hands
Choose six distinct cards and an Ace convention.
The comparison method
- Compare category: Trail, pure sequence, sequence, color, pair, high card.
- For equal sequence categories, apply the selected Ace order.
- For equal pairs, compare the paired rank, then the unmatched kicker.
- For color or high card, compare ranks from highest to lowest.
- Equal comparison ranks tie in the tool’s equal-suit convention.
Use six distinct cards from one deck. The tool covers ordinary three-card hands; variants with wild cards or reversed objectives use their own rule references.
