A flush in poker is a hand made up of five cards of the same suit, like all hearts or all spades, in any order. The cards don’t need to be in a sequence—just the same suit. A flush beats a straight but loses to a full house in standard hand rankings.
The highest card in the flush determines its strength. So a flush with an ace (called an ace-high flush) beats a king-high flush, and so on. If two players have flushes, the one with the highest top card wins; if needed, the second, third, etc., cards are compared.
Flushes are strong, stylish, and pretty rare—so when you hit one, you’re often in great shape to win the pot.
