Hand Poker
hand in poker can mean any of
the following:
A synonym for "round", a unit of play consisting of a deal, betting, and
possibly a showdown. The term "hand" is preferred because "round" is
sometimes used in the context of a "round of betting", and there can be
multiple rounds of betting in one hand.
A set of five cards with a certain value. For example, the hand A♥ 10♥
9♥ 5♥ 3♥ is a "flush", or hand that is valuable because each card is of
the same suit.
A player's set of non-communal cards.
The second and third definitions are often used interchangeably. For
example, in Texas hold 'em, a player holding A♣ K♠, with a board of A♥
K♣ K♦ 7♠ 3♦, might say, "my hand is ace-king". On the other hand, his
best 5-card hand is the K/A full house.
