Chair #62




ACCENT CHAIR
—Designed by Suzanne Kasler for Hickory Chair

Love the quatrefoil shape of the chair back. This should be called the club chair, and sold with a heart, a spade, and a diamond back chair. Poker anyone?

Poker Hand Ranking

Royal Flush A straight from a ten to an ace with all five cards of the same suit. In poker all suits are ranked equally.

Straight Flush Any straight with all five cards of the same suit.

Four of a Kind Any four cards of the same rank. If two players share the same Four of a Kind, the bigger fifth card (known as the kicker) decides who wins the pot.

Full House Any three cards of the same rank together with any two cards of the same rank. 

Flush Any five cards of the same suit (not consecutive). The highest card of the five determines the rank of the flush. 
 
Straight Any five consecutive cards of different suits. Aces can count as either a high or a low card. 

Three of a Kind Any three cards of the same rank. 

Two Pair Any two cards of the same rank together with another two cards of the same rank. The highest pair of the two determines the rank of the two-pair.

One Pair Any two cards of the same rank. 

High Card Any hand not in the above-mentioned hands.
