Poker probability frequencies are calculated in a manner similar to that shown for 5-card hands, except additional complications arise due to the extra two cards in the 7-card poker hand. The total number of distinct 7-card hands is formula_3. It is notable that the probability of a no-pair hand is "less" than the probability of a one-pair or two-pair hand. The Ace-high straight flush or royal flush is slightly more frequent (4324) than the lower straight flushes (4140 each) because the remaining two cards can have any value; a King-high straight flush, for example, cannot have the Ace of its suit in
Pick a Partner Poker Pick a Partner Poker Pick a Partner is a variant of draw poker which requires players to work as a team. It must be played with an even number of players (at least four) because it requires them to work in pairs and combine their hands.

They are not obliged to show their strongest card. Then the next available player with the highest card picks their partner, until everyone is paired up.
