They make no sense to me, although I play poker sometimes.

“There are more hands stronger than Q5.”

“There are many hands stronger than Q7.”


Will you shed the light on it?

I don't know what "Q5" and Q7" mean, but ignoring that:

 

1 There are more hands stronger than weaker than Q5. /stronger than Q5 than weaker than Q5.

 

2 There are as many hands stronger than Q7 as there are weaker than Q7. -- OK (except for superfluous double space)
