How do you enter the World Series of poker?

There are several ways to register for a WSOP event. The most common way to register for an event is to simply show up while the WSOP is in progress on-site at the Rio Convention Center registration desk within days/hours of the start of your event(s), and proceed to buy-in using cash or live casino chips.

Registration is open 24 hours a day from May 30 until July 10. If the WSOP registration desk is closed, the Rio Main Cage in the Casino will always accept registration for WSOP events. Players looking to play cash games, satellites or daily non-bracelet events may still buy-in at the Rio Convention Center registration desk. The WSOP also accepts pre-registration for any bracelet event up to 14 days prior to the start of an event, as this ensures your seat will be reserved regardless if an event is sold out.

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.

If you have a 4 of a kind in poker does the fifth card count?

well, it depends a lot.

imagine the 4 of a kind is for all players (the cards for the 4 of a kind came to the table). in this case, the player who has the highest card wins the pot. however, if the highest card is a community card as well, the pot is split, if you happen to have an Ace for example, you will win the pot.

if you have a pocket in your hand and the 2 other cards come to the table then the 5th card won't matter at all, but you always have to play with 5 cards
