Hands are always formed with 5 cards, so even with four a kind a fifth card is required to form the hand. With the four of a kind no the board in hold'em every player will take their highest card to form the hand. This highest card is their kicker, and the player with the highest kickers wins. If two players have that same final card the pot will be split.

For example, community cards: 7s 7c 7d 7h 9c

Tom: 8h Ks

Jack: Ah 2h

Jack has four sevens ace-high, Tom has four sevens king high. Jack's ace is higher than the King so he wins.

What are the odds of getting a straight flush at a ten player table in Texas holdem with the player having 4s5s suited and the board is 3skd6sqh7s?

Unless someone can make a flush or a straight flush, (for example, if the QKA on the board are all the same suit and player 1 has J 10 in that suit), the pot is split equally among the 4 players. In general, each player makes the best 5 card hand he can with the 7 cards at his disposal (5 on the board and 2 in his hand). If two or more players make the same hand (or hands that rank the same) then the pot is split. In this case, assuming no available flushes, each player makes an Ace-high straight. Since these are all the same rank - it doesn't matter than one player's ace comes from his hand instead of the board; the hands are still the same - the pot is split.
