Poker hand comparisons

The wheel A–2–3–4–5 is five-high. The other straight is six-high and wins. The ace is low only in the wheel; it does not make that straight ace-high.

Both have one pair of nines and an ace kicker. Compare the next kicker: king beats queen. The final kicker is never reached, and suits do not break a standard poker tie.

Both play the same ace-high straight from the five board cards. Neither private holding improves it. Standard high-hand comparison is tied; a kicker cannot be added as a sixth card.

A full house ranks above an ordinary flush in standard high poker. Some short-deck conventions change that order, so this answer must not be transferred to an unspecified variant.
