Question

Which straight is higher in poker ace to jack or ace to five?

Answer 1

since you need five cards to have a straight (being consecutive) and ace to jack only uses four cards; the winning hand would be the ace to five (uses all five cards)

Answer 2

I just read a great e-book about online poker. It teaches a very basic method that lets even a poker rookie profit hard from online poker. Very simple idea and a fast read!

Answer 3

Ace to five because there are 5 cards making it a straight. the ace to jack is not a complete hand, being only 4 cards. Ace, king, queen, jack, ten would be the higher straight.
