Pawker

As a qualified, certified, bonafide, house cat extraordinaire, you know that the correct way to play poker is to knock all the cards off the table and then chew on whoever was insisting you play poker in the first place.

But the bugs are insisting so now you've got to prove to them you've got what it takes. Beat the bugs at Pawker to prove you're the Pawker Star.

Fortunately for you bugs can't count, so you can build your best Pawker handpaw from as many cards as you can grab. Unfortunately for you the bugs are going to keep presenting you with hard to beat Pawker hands, and they're going to use more players and run faster!

From best to worst, these are the handspaws you can make:

1. Royal straight (Ace, King, Queen, Jack, and 10 all of the same suit)
2. Straight flush (five consecutive cards of the same suit)
3. Four of a kind
4. Full house (a three of a kind and a pair)
5. Flush (five cards of the same suit
6. Straight (five consecutive cards of any suit)
7. Three of a kind
8. Two pairs
9. One pair
10. High card (whatever the highest ranked card in your hand is - this is not good)
