This exercise uses fixed visible cards so you can check an explanation without a random outcome.
READ & APPLY 01
Hand one: spot the pair
Read 6♣ 6♥ Q♦. The pair of sixes defines the category; the queen is a kicker. Say both parts aloud.
READ & APPLY 02
Hand two: avoid the colour trap
Read 2♦ 8♦ J♦. All cards share a suit but do not run consecutively, so the hand is a colour, not a pure sequence.
READ & APPLY 03
Hand three and four: compare categories
Compare 4♥ 5♥ 6♥ with 9♣ 9♦ 9♥. The trail wins under the classic ladder even though the other hand is a pure sequence.
READ & APPLY 04
Hand five: ask the right question
Read A♣ 2♦ 3♥. Name it as a sequence, then ask how that room ranks it against A-K-Q. Finishing the drill means explaining the rule, not collecting a high score.
