The standard ranks are listed in the previous section. Occasionally the relative rank of two hands is modified.
when two players have the same type of poker hand (as listed above), the one with the higher ranking cards wins. Thus if the highest card in each hand is also a tie, the next card is used, and so on. If two hands are exactly the same in all respects (except suits), the players tie.
In this variation, both the highest and lowest hand split the pot. Any odd chips are awarded to the higher hand.
In addition to the jokers previously mentioned, the dealer may declare a rank or group of cards (usually deuces) wild. These wild cards may stand for any card, except for a card already in the players hand.
