Message: [QUOTE="OzExorcist, post: 1817162, member: 23910"] ^ this. It's easy to remember because it's in reverse alphabetical order. Note that about the only use this ranking has in modern poker is deciding who has the bring-in for stud games: if two players both get dealt a two as their upcard, then the one with the lowest suit has to bring in (and the reverse in Razz, obviously). Otherwise, identical flushes etc have the same value regardless of suit and result in a split pot. Edit: obviously the colour of the cards has no effect on their ranking, so it doesn't matter if you're playing with a two-colour deck or a four-colour one. Also, these are the rankings for [i]poker[/i] - it's entirely possible other games have different suit rankings, which is probably the source of the confusion. [/QUOTE]
