1.1. Calls A with 2 hands(hero and villain) and a full board of 5 cards. 1.2. Since the board is filled up, A calls B for the hero hand with the full board. We get the best hand for the hero hand on that board. 1.3. A also call B for the villain hand with the full board. We get the best hand for the villain hand on that board. 1.4 A Calls D to check if there is a tie and if there is calculates who wins.
