Flush

In poker, a flush is any five cards of the same suit. The suits are diamonds, clubs, spades, and hearts. A flush is considered a strong hand in poker, beating a straight, but it does not beat a full house or higher.

A flush is not possible in Hold 'Em or Omaha until at least three community cards are of the same suit.

If two players have a flush, the player with the highest hole card wins.
