Straight Flush

The "straight flush" is a quite unusual rank.  To have a straight flush, you must hold 5 cards that qualify both as a straight and as a flush.  In other words you must hold 5 cards with consecutive values and identical suits.  (Please see the sections on "Straights" and "Flushes" for more precise definitions.)  Below is an example of a "Straight Flush":

8 of hearts 7 of hearts 9 of hearts 6 of hearts ace of hearts

The cards are all hearts (same suit), and they have consecutive values (the Ace being treated as the value 10).
