- The value of flush goes all the way up to AKQJ9 of the same suit, and this is the biggest flush possible without having the strongest hand in poker – royal flush (AKQJT of the same suit). The highest flush beats not only all the lower flushes that will not be folding to our huge bets, but it also beats all sets (trips), two pairs, and pairs.
- In poker, a flush is made when holding 5 cards all of the same suit. If the cards are also in consecutive rank order, this is referred to instead as a 'straight flush'. Question 2: Which flush wins in poker? Assuming two players both have a flush, the winner is determined by the player with the highest ranked flush card (Aces are high).
Flush is one of the strongest poker hands in Texas Hold'em, and when you are lucky to hit your flush draw, you will win the pot most of the time.
Introduction
Flush Rush is a new table game I first noticed at the D casino in Las Vegas in May 2014. The game combines the emphasis of flushes in High Card Flush and the raise or fold betting structure in Mississippi Stud. The longer the flush, or straight flush, in the player's final hand, the more he wins.
Rules
- The game is played with a standard 52-card deck. All cards ranked as in conventional poker.
- The player makes an Ante wager, plus optional All or Nothing side bet.
- The player receives four cards.
- The player may make a first Play bet, equal to his Ante, or fold.
- If the player is still in the game, then he receives two more cards.
- The player may make a second Play bet, equal to his Ante, or fold.
- If the player is still in the game, then he receives one more card.
- The Ante bet is scored according to the following pay table. If the player has both a paying flush and straight flush hand, then he will receive the higher of the two pays.
- The Play bets pay even money with a flush of four or more cards, otherwise they lose.
- The All or Nothing pays based on the player's first four cards only, as explained below.
