Okay so I'm trying to make a sheet that represents a 100 full table of players and their hands and then summarizes the results for analysis I've got an almost complete. I used the forums to find formulas that work. This in the spreadsheet that I attached. the way I got the cards to layout using RANDBETWEEN. Eight players are dealt cards in turn then the burn and the flop and burn and turn and the burn and the river. I did that so that not only does a player get a random card but if it were actually being dealt one of the other cards remaining would've been wasted on the Burns.
I have a formula to determine if there's a flush. I found a formula to determine the various forms of matching cards in a five card hand and thought I had adapted it for the seven card hand properly until I started analyzing the data. I used
=LOOKUP(SUMPRODUCT(COUNTIF(H1:H7,"="&LEFT(H1:H7,1)&"*")),{7,9,11,13,15,19},{"no","one pair","two pair","3 of kind","full house","4 of kind"})
which actually works great except when there's three pairs. Now three pairs is not a valid poker hand. But the SUMPRODUCT returns a value of 13 for both the condition of three pairs or one three of a kind. I also have a problem when there is two 3 of the kinds, it should be a full house but it registers as four a kind.

question 1. Is there a way to fix it?

I also have a formula for finding straight that's also in the sheet that is also in the sheet. What I did was break out the left-hand value of the cards and then check them against a helper section.

Question 2. Is there a way to use this formula with the original seven cards or going to need to go through the step of breaking out the left-hand number?

Question 3. Is there a way to pull out just the five cards used for each one of these hands?

Side note I want to do this all with formulas.
