	Poker Rules and Variations
		Poker uses a standard pack of playing cards, 52 cards (there are some poker games that uses more or less depending on the variations such as adding wild cards like jokers).
		The card ranking is as follows Ace (the highest), King, Queen, Jack, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 (the lowest), Ace (this may also be the lowest card depending on the variations you are using, but it is usually the highest).
		High Card- When a hand doesn't even have a pair, then it comes down to who is holding the highest ranking card.

	6-Card Poker Hands
		If the smallest card in the straight flush is any of the other 36 eligible beginning cards, then the sixth card may be any of 46 cards because we cannot use the next smallest card in the same suit as the straight flush.
		There are 4 choices for each of the remaining 4 cards except we cannot choose all 4 to be in the same suit as either of the cards forming the pair.
		However, you are basing the ranking on 5 cards so that if you were to rank a high card hand higher than a hand with a single pair, people would choose to ignore the pair in a 6-card hand with a single pair and call it a high card hand.
