High Card (poker)
1) In a stud game, the exposed card with the highest rank, usually
the one
who must initiate the first round of betting.
2) At the showdown, a hand that wins when two no-pair hands
or two flushes are in contention by virtue of containing a card
of higher rank than any in the other hand.
