How Pusoy Hand Rankings Work at the Table
Pusoy is played with 52 cards split into three hands — the back (five cards), the middle (five cards), and the front (three cards). Each hand must rank equal to or lower than the one behind it. The back hand carries the most weight, so setting a Full House or better there locks in your strongest position. Hands rank the same way
as standard poker: four of a kind beats a full house, a flush beats a straight, and a pair beats a high card. The front three-card hand only recognises straights, flushes, and pairs — no full house possible there. Misset your hands and you foul automatically, handing the round to your opponent.
