	Wild card - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The wild card team (which can be considered the fourth seed in an analogy to other sports' tournaments) usually plays the team with the best record in the league (which can be considered the first seed) in the Division Series.
		Therefore, if the wild card team is from the same division as the team with the best record, then the wild card team will play the second-best team in the league, while the team with the best record will play against the third-best team.
		Though the National Basketball Association and National Hockey League include wild-card teams in their playoff structures, the term "wild card" is seldom used in the NBA or NHL; instead, each playoff team is most commonly denoted by its seeding position within the conference.

	USPC - Poker and Its Many Versions
		A wild card is specified by the holder to be a card of any rank or suit, such as a fifth queen, or the card needed to combine with the other four in a player's hand to form a straight or a flush.
		When such a card is designated, it means that every card of that rank in that player's hand is wild, but the fact that a certain card is wild in one player's hand does not make that same rank of card wild in other players' hands.
		Unless a card has been served to the next active player in turn, the dealer must correct the error by supplying the missing cards or restoring the excess to the top of the pack, as the case may be.

		In poker, hands are ranked according to their frequency — the lower the probability of receiving a hand, the higher the hand is ranked.
		When wild cards are introduced, it becomes impossible to rank the hands according to their frequency; there will always be at least one hand that is ranked below a hand of higher frequency.
		It is also interesting to note that the more wild cards used, the lower the frequency of flushes becomes, as four of a kind and full houses become more common.
