Guts Poker Hand Ranks
The more difficult a poker hand is to acquire, the more valuable it is. Obviously in traditional poker, it is harder to make a straight than it is to make a pair. So, a straight is ranked higher, and beats a pair.
In guts poker, players only use three cards to make thier hands. Using three cards instead of five or seven makes a big difference in which hands are harder to come by. With only three cards in a hand, a three-of-a-kind is more difficult to form than a straight, and a straight is harder to come by than a flush. So, the hand rankings reflect this.
The poker hand rankings for the game of guts are as follows:
Straight Flush
Three-of-a-Kind
Straight
Flush
One Pair
High Card
Guts is a kitchen table variation of poker, and is usually not found in casinos or online cardrooms, but there is one online poker network that deals guts poker for fun or real money wagering.
They offer two forms of the game (one where every player with a losing hand at the showdown matches the pot, and one where only the lowest hand at the showdown matches the pot). The recommended room to play guts poker online is Superior Poker
