Find the number of different poker hands of straight (five cards of consecutive denominations: A, 2, 3, 4, 5 up through 10, J, Q, K, A, not all of the same suit). (Note that the Ace counts either as a 1 or as the denomination above
King.
---------
Pick a lowest starting card type: 10 ways 
Pick that lowest card and each of the next 4: 4^5 = 1024 ways

Total number of straights: 10*1024= 10,240
