Ok. So 2) is essentially the same question as "how many different 5 card poker hands are possible"?
e: If that is correct, and using Alspach (
http://people.math.sfu.ca/~alspach/comp18/) as a basis, I get:
10 different straight flushes
156 different four-of-a-kinds
156 different full houses
1277 different flushes
10 different straights
858 different three-of-a-kinds
858 different two-pairs
2860 different pairs
1277 different high-cards
for a total of 7462 different hands
e2: I see that Siegmund already said that
