   General Rules:

   -Individual cards are ranked A (high), K, Q, J, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, A
   -Suits have no value
   -Hands are ranked first by category, then by individual card ranks

   Here are the hands (best to worst):

   STRAIGHT FLUSH: contains five cards in sequence (Q♣ J♣ 10♣ 9♣ 8♣)
   FOUR OF A KIND/QUADS: such as 9♣ 9♠ 9♦ 9♥ J♥, which contains four cards of one rank, and an unmatched card of another rank.
   FULL HOUSE: such as 3♣ 3♠ 3♦ 6♣ 6♥, which contains three matching cards of one rank, and two matching cards of another rank.
   FLUSH: such as Q♣ 10♣ 7♣ 6♣ 4♣, which contains five cards of the same suit, not in rank sequence.
   STRAIGHT: such as Q♣ J♠ 10♠ 9♥ 8♥, which contains five cards of sequential rank but in more than one suit.
   THREE OF A KIND/TRIPS: such as 2♦ 2♠ 2♣ K♠ 6♥, which contains three cards of the same rank, plus two unmatched cards.
   TWO PAIR: such as J♥ J♣ 4♣ 4♠ 9♥, which contains two cards of the same rank, plus two cards of another rank (that match each other but not the first pair), plus one unmatched card
   ONE PAIR: such as 4♥ 4♠ K♠ 10♦ 5♠, which contains two cards of the same rank, plus three other unmatched cards.
   HIGH CARD/NO PAIR: such as K♥ J♣ 8♣ 7♦ 3♠, in which no two cards have the same rank, the five cards are not in sequence, and the five cards are not all the same suit
