Several issues were raised in this talk page post from April but none were acknowledged. The main concern is that there are a lot of stretches of unsourced material; the entire "Variations" subheader is completely unsourced; terms such as "kicker" are not defined or wikilinked to clarify for those of us who do not play poker; and sources 1-4 (Suffecool, Poker Tips, PokerWokrs, and Brian Alspach) do not appear to be reliable sources. The page was promoted in 2008, and no maintenance seems to have been done since. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 06:09, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Unfortunate delist - I'd be lying if I said I haven't used this article to help me learn about poker hands as recent as a year ago. I'm not a big card person. As the nominator explains, this isn't up to current standards. There's a good list on the talk page of some places to start if anybody would like to bring it back up, but the lack of inline citations and messy formatting is enough to remove the gold star for now.
