   High Card — A hand whose ranking is determined solely on the basis of the greatest card value held because it does not contain a pair, two pair, three of a kind, a straight, a flush, a full house, four of a kind, or a straight flush; in the hierarchy of hand values, the hand ranking immediately below a pair.

   Pair — A hand containing two cards of the same value, such as Qs-Qh-4c-Js-7d; the hand ranking immediately below a two pair and immediately above a high card.

   Two Pair — A hand containing a kicker and two groupings each with two cards of the same value, such as Qs-Qh-4c-4s-7d; the hand ranking immediately below a three of a kind and immediately above a pair.

   Set — Three of a kind, especially in community card games when two of the three cards are held in the pocket and only one is on the board. (example: 3 sixes)

   Straight — A hand containing five cards of consecutive value regardless of each card’s suit, such as 7h-8d-9s-10c-Jh; the hand ranking immediately below a flush and immediately above three of a kind.

   Flush — A hand containing five cards of the same suit, diamonds, hearts, spades, or clubs; the hand ranking immediately below a full house and immediately above a straight.

   Full House — A hand containing both a three of a kind and a pair, such as Qs-Qh-Qd-7s-7d; the hand ranking immediately below four of a kind and immediately above a flush.

   Four of a Kind — A hand containing four cards of the same value, such as 9s-9c-9h-9d-x; the hand ranking immediately below a straight flush and immediately above a full house; quads; quadruplets.

   Straight Flush — A hand containing five cards of the same suit and of consecutive value, such as 7h-8h-9h-10h-Jh; the hand ranking immediately above four of a kind, and outranking all natural hands

   Royal Flush — The straight flush A-K-Q-J-10 suited; an ace-high straight flush; the highest possible straight flush.

   I think I know what you are asking, but I’m not sure you worded it well…

   If two players have two pair, whichever is highest of the four pairs in play wins, i.e. KK332 is better than QQJJ2.

   For Full house, the three of a kind is looked at first, i.e. AAA77 beats KKK99, also AAA99 beats AAA88.

   For a flush, the highest of the suited card wins, i.e. (all spades) A7632 beats (all spades) KQJ93 because the A of spades equals the best flush.

   I hope I understand your question and was able to help.

   If by "what is the difference between kind and suit" you mean what is the difference between 4 of a kind and the 5 of one suit (what you need for a flush) this means that in four of a kind you need four cards of the same number no matter what the suit is. The suit is the type of card (the picture on the card other than the number) the suits are spades, hearts, clubs and diamonds. In example, 4 of a kind can be 5 of hearts, 5 of spades, 5 of clubs, 5 of diamonds or 3 of diamonds, 3 of clubs, 3 of spades, 3 of clubs, it doesn’t matter so long as they are all the same numerical value. For the flush you need 5 cards of the same suit no matter what the number is, examples are 4 of clubs, jack of clubs, two of clubs, nine of clubs and 7 of clubs. Or ten of diamonds, queen of diamonds, three of diamonds, ace of diamonds, 5 of diamonds.

   Royal Flush – An Ace-High straight of one suit.
   Straight Flush – A straight of entirely one suit.
   Four-of-a-Kind (Quads) – Four cards of the same rank.
   Full House (Full Boat, Boat) – Three-of-a-kind and a pair. The example below would be called Queens over Aces or Queens full of Aces.
   Flush – Five cards of the same suit.
   Straight (Run) – Five cards of sequential rank. Note that in holdem, Aces can be high or low.
   An example of a straight where the Ace is low:
   three-of-a-Kind (Trips, Set) – Three cards of the same rank.
   Two Pair – Two cards of the same rank and another two cards of the same rank. The example below would be called Jacks and Twos.
   One Pair – Two cards of the same rank.
   High Card – When you don’t have any of the above, your highest card determines your hand. The example below would be King High or High card King.
