In poker, players form sets of five playing cards, called hands, according to the rules of the game. [1] Each hand has a rank, which is compared against the ranks of other hands participating in the showdown to decide who wins the pot. [2] In high games, like Texas hold 'em and seven-card stud, the highest-ranking hands win
For each player with cards, each card is 1 point, unless if they have 10 or more cards in which case each card is 2 points. The points are paid to the winner. For example, if North wins, and East , West , and South respectively still had 3, 11, and 8 cards remaining, then East scores −3, West scores −22, South scores −8, and North scores +33.
Players can even choose to deal all 25 cards face-up before beginning placement. This gives more flexibility, and gives players the opportunity to produce higher scoring hands on the grid. Scoring is the same as Poker Squares, but under these rules a winning score is 120 points in the English system and 310 points in the American system. [5]
Alice holds J♦ 8♠. Bob holds K♥ 7♠. After the flop, the board is 5♥6♥7♦. If both hands are played to a showdown, Alice has a 45% chance to win (which she is unaware of, because she does not know what hand Bob holds), Bob has a 53% chance to win and there is a 2% chance to split the pot. The pot currently has $51.

The rules are extremely complicated; basic knowledge of poker hand rankings helps players get started. However, many of Dou Dizhu's rules are different from Poker and Big Two. There is an element of luck involved, but what counts is not only luck but also skill of playing and strategy.
A kicker, also called a side card, is a card in a poker hand that does not itself take part in determining the rank of the hand, but that may be used to break ties between hands of the same rank. [1] [2] For example, the hand Q-Q-10-5-2 is ranked as a pair of queens. The 10, 5, and 2 are kickers.
