    Players new to HE find it difficult at time to determine is they have a made straight.

    FIND if the Straight!


    K 8 J 4 8 A 2 9 6 8 Q 7 3 6 K 2 7 3 J A 8 9 4






    DONT TRY TO FIND FIVE IN SEQUENCE!!!
    First look for a 5 or 10.....
    NO 5......NO 10..... No Straight!

    When a player holds TJ and makes a straight on the board, without a ten or a jack being in the texture of the cards shown, with no three flush cards present, and not a pair on the board; then every straight made is the nuts!

    KQ and AK always make a nut 3 card board straight as well, but of course each make FEWER straights than JT.
