This depends on the kind of variant you are playing.

In most Poker games a valid winning combination of cards, consists of 5 cards. For example Texas Hold'Em, Omaha Hi, 7 Card Stud etc.

In these kinds of games, the hand with the highest combination wins the pot.

For more information about combinations, see big-full-1.

EXAMPLE: JJ561 is beaten by QQ789, one holds a pair of Jacks (J), the other one a pair of Queens (Q).

There are also "Lo" games, the combinations that wins in these kinds of variants are the lowest hands possible. For instance 23457 is the absolute lowest combination you can make in "Lo" games, in some variants, the Ace (A) is also considdered a low card, which makes the absolute lowest combination possible A2346.
