Answer 1

cards2 = sorted(cards)
But at line 21 it's str not int so list sorts like ['10',..,'9'] and gives a problem with "Straight Flush"

Answer 2

only pro subscriber can see the test case

Answer 3

I couldn't find the problem, but I can suggest some improvements:
1. Use better variable (and function, class, etc.) names. It's quite easier to follow the logic when the names make sense.
2. Use loops for repetitive tests, instead of a big "or" stream.
3. Create functions to help on those tests, like repetition counters, sequence detectors, etc.
