I have a program that needs to find straights in a hand of cards.

Only straights?

The hand is a string with no whitespace sorted by the cards' ranks, eg "9d10cJhQsKd". How can I identify if that hand contains a straight with a single regex?

Why on earth would you want to do that?

Is that even possible?

I doubt it.

I suggest you check out the Games::Poker::HandEvaluator module at CPAN.
