I would like to continue on with some kind of Poker app where players join in with their AI's so issue of settling ties is huge obstacle until settled.
According to this article:
https://automaticpoker.com/poker-basics/...-in-poker/
Suits don't matter in tie breakers (of same rank), it's simply Card rank versus card rank from highest to lowest eg A Royal Flush ties another.
Still I think if rank doesn't settle then Suits would but then what's the order alphabetical puts Spades highest Clubs lowest and Diamonds then Hearts next.
And to avoid ties, Poker games should avoid common cards available to all players.
Also there is simple coding solution to 2 digit Tens, just use T like we do for Ace, Jack, Queen, King... I like! (A Royal Flush is all letters.)
Now for tie breaker function now that we have the tie and suit issue cleared up.
