Poker, Nevada style is much like the game you play in your parlor. The only exception being that the dealer remains the same and the deck is not passed. However a button is used to denote the player dealer. Games that are generally offered are Seven Card Stud, Hold Em and High Low.

Poker is played with a standard 52-card deck, with an ace being the highest-ranking card, followed by a king, queen and jack. Poker games can either be high poker or low poker.

Here are the ranks of hands in descending order:

1. Royal Flush: Ace, King, Queen, Jack and 10 in the same suit.
2. Straight Flush: A sequence of five cards in the same suit.
3. Four of a Kind: Any four cards of the same rank.
4. Full House: Three cards of the same rank and two other cards of the same rank.
5. Flush: Five cards of the same suit, but not in sequence.
6. Straight: Five cards in sequence, and not of the same suit.
7. Three of a Kind: Three cards of the same rank.
8. Two Pair: Two separate pairs.
9. One Pair: Two cards of the same rank.
10. High Card: Highest card in your hand.
