Checking means you basically bet nothing or can pass your betting turn to another player. As for the hands, there's quite a number of them. [He clears his throat.]

First there's High Card. What that means is your hand is valued by the highest single card in said hand. Next there's One Pair. This means a pair is formed when you have two of any of the same cards. The same applies to Two Pairs, Three of a Kind, and Four of a Kind. After that is a Straight. A straight is a five-card hand consisting of a sequence of cards regardless of the suit. Then you have a Flush. When all five cards in a hand are of the same suit, it is a flush. There's also a variant called a Straight Flush. Basically a straight flush is made up of five cards all from the same suit and they have to be consecutive. There's also a Full House. This happens when you have a three-of-a-kind and a pair in the same hand. Then lastly there's a Royal Flush. This is basically a winning hand, as you have have consecutive cards along with an ace.

[After that long winded explanation, he takes a moment to breath before speaking.] Does that answer your questions?
