Pat Hand (videopoker)

 

A hand where all five cards fit into a winning hand. For example, if you are initially dealt 3c, 5c, 8c, 9c, Jc you have a pat hand which contains a flush. However, if you are dealt Jc, Jd, Jh, 8s, 4c you do have three of a kind but not a pat hand since the 8 and 4 are rags. You would hold the Jacks and draw two. The only exception is four of a kind in Jacks or Better. The fifth card is a rag but can't improve the hand by drawing to it.
