A straight flush is a hand that contains five cards in sequence, all of the same suit, such as Qâ£ Jâ£ 10â£ 9â£ 8â£ (a hand that meets the requirements of both a straight and a flush). Two such hands are compared by their card that is ranked highest.
To show down a hand in hold'em when your cards don't make a hand any better than is shown on the board. For instance, if you have 22, and the board is 4-4-9-9-A (no flush possible), then you must play the board : the best possible hand you can make doesn't use any of your cards.
