Welcome to the 1st Annual Geocaching Poker Rally (Darwell)
There will be envelopes in this cache. PLEASE only take 1 up to a total of 5 envelopes per PERSON. If you already have five, then leave them for the next person. If there are no more envelopes, and you do not have 5 yet. Please text or call the CO ASAP. And a “spare” card will be awarded to you when you arrive back at the wrap-up event.
High card
High card, also known as no pair or simply nothing, is a hand that does not fall into any other category, such as K♥ J♥ 8♣ 7♦ 4♠ ("high card, king" or "king-jack-high" or "king-high"). Note that under ace-to-five low rules, straights, flushes and straight flushes are not possible, so such hands are instead high card hands. It ranks below one pair.
Each high card hand is ranked first by the rank of its highest-ranking card, then by the rank of its second highest-ranking card, then by the rank of its third highest-ranking card, then by the rank of its fourth highest-ranking card, and finally by the rank of its lowest-ranking card. For example, K♠ 6♣ 5♥ 3♦ 2♣ ranks higher than Q♠ J♦ 6♣ 5♥ 3♣, which ranks higher than Q♠ 10♦ 8♣ 7♦ 4♠, which ranks higher than Q♥ 10♥ 7♣ 6♥ 4♠, which ranks higher than Q♣ 10♣ 7♦ 5♣ 4♦, which ranks higher than Q♥ 10♦ 7♠ 5♠ 2♥. High card hands that differ by suit alone, such as 10♣ 8♠ 7♠ 6♥ 4♦ and 10♦ 8♦ 7♠ 6♣ 4♣, are of equal rank.
This cache has been hidden for the poker rally event on Sunday, July 20, 2025 with the intention that it not be found prior to 12:30 p.m. that day.
