What are the basic rules of poker?
Poker as we all know it is a game of skills. It is played from a standard pack of 52 cards. But some variants also use multiple packs or add a few cards called jokers. These cards are ranked from high to low, i.e., Ace, King, Queen, Jack, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2. There are four suits in a card, like spades, hearts, diamonds, and clubs; however no suit is higher than another. Some of the poker games have Wild Cards that can take any suit and rank their possessor desires. For example, jokers can be used as wildcards.
