A Texas Hold'em 7-card evaluator: Part II.

(Part I is here.)

There are further significant performance gains to be had by exploiting thoughtful choices for the suit values.

We assign the integer values 0, 1, 8 and 57 for spade, heart, diamond and club respectively.

Any sum of exactly seven values taken from {0, 1, 8, 57} is unique among all such sums. We add up the suits of a 7-card hand to produce a "flush check" key and use this to find a precalculated flush suit value (in the case we're looking at a flush) or otherwise a defined non-flush constant.

The extraordinarily lucky aspect of this is that the maximum non-flush key we have, 7825759, is a 23-bit integer (note 2^23 = 8388608) and the largest suit key we find, 57*7 = 399, is a 9-bit integer (note 2^9 = 512). If we bit-shift a card's non-flush face value and add to this its flush check to make a card key in advance, when we aggregate the resulting card keys over a given 7-card hand we generate a 23+9 = 32-bit integer key for the whole hand. This integer key can only just be accommodated on a 32-bit system and yet still carries enough information to decide if we're looking at a flush and, if not, to then look up the rank of the hand.

We can therefore typically (about 97% of the time for a random hand) decide the rank of a 7-card hand with no more than six additions, as opposed to twelve (six for the flush check and another six for the rank key), extracting a performance gain in excess of 30%.

This optimisation features in Poker Ace 1.1 and later versions. It has also been implemented in the Objective-C, Java, C++ and Python versions of the open source code.

For what it's worth, with this optimization and some inlining I've seen the C++ version clock over 250M evaluations per second on my 2010 MacBook Pro.
