Royal flush

A Royal Flush is a hand which consists of 5 cards between 10 and Ace all of the same suit. It is the best and rarest hand in the game of poker.

e.g "Jimmy had Ace Queen of hearts. The board had 10, Jack and King of hearts. The 10-Jack-Queen-King-Ace of hearts meant he had a Royal Flush. He'll remember that moment forever."
