Rank of High Hands

In Seven-card Stud, players compare five card hands against each other to determine who wins. A player with a Royal Flush has a better hand than a player with a Full House, for example. Below is a list of standard combinations ranked from best to worst.

Royal Flush	A straight from a ten to an ace and all five cards of the same suit. In poker suit does not matter and pots are split between equally strong hands.
Straight Flush	Any straight with all five cards of the same suit.
Four of a Kind	Any four cards of the same rank.
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 which are not consecutive.
Straight	Any five consecutive cards of different suits. The ace 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.
One-pair	Any two cards of the same rank.
High-card	Any hand that does not make up any of the above mentioned hands.

Rank of Low Hands

The fact that in low hand all cards are of the same suit or in sequence does not affect its value. Ace is considered as low card.

The following list is from best to worst low hand, so any hand on the list beats any hand below it and loses to any hand above it.

Five High	Five, four, three, two and Ace
Six High	Any five odd cards topped with six. In case of coincidence of high cards, two next high cards should be compared, and etc.
Seven High	Any five odd cards topped with seven. In case of coincidence of high cards, two next high cards should be compared, and etc.
Eight High	Any five odd cards topped with eight. In case of coincidence of high cards, two next high cards should be compared, and etc.
