The high card always wins. In a case like this one the person with the highest card wins. Forget about the suits. You both have flushes o.k. Then look at the cards whoever has the highest card wins.
you couldnt have two differan tflushes at the same time. If both people have suited hole cards ( cards dealt to them) then both of them need 3 more of their suit to get a flush. Since only 5 cards are presented for use ( flop 3 turn 1 river 1) there is not enough cards. you would need 6 cards to work with for that to happen.
If you're playing Texas Hold'em, this scenario is not possible. If you're playing 5-card draw or 5 or 7-card stud, then this becomes a possibility. If you're playing one of the latter, and both players have a straight flush to the same high card, it's a split pot. If both players have a straight flush with one player's hand to a higher valued card than the other player, then the high straight flush hand wins.
In Texas Hold'em, two players could conceivably both have straight flush hands of the same suit. In this case, the higher valued hand would win.
The only time I've seen the suit come into play has been while drawing for seat position prior to a tournament where two or more players had the highest valued card and rather than have each of them re-draw for high card, the host determined the "winner" based on the highest ranking suit. There are web sites out there that go over the origination of the four suits and they are actually ranked 1 through 4 with spades being the highest.
