Full house: 3 cards of the same ran plus 2 cards of the same rank. Flush: 5 cards of the same suit.

For your 2-card hand, the best you can get is a pair. Not every one of the 5 cards needs to be a part of your hand. For example, if you have 3 of a kind, the remaining 2 cards can simply form the rest of your 5-card hand. In Pai Gow poker, you play against the dealer, not the other players at the table. If both your 5-card hand and your 2-card hand beats the dealer, you win the round and double the bet that you placed. Lose both of your hands against the dealer's hands, then you lose your bet. If you win 1 of your hands and the dealer wins the other, then the round ends in a push and nobody wins the round. If both of your hands tie the dealer, then the dealer wins that round.
