YAPT

I have a bet on this and I'm sure I'm right. I'd like your responses and also somewhere it "officially" states this...

Example:
I Have K-3
You have K-8

Community is: 5-5-K-A-2

It is my agrument that this is a split pot, we both have the same pairs and the A is our kicker. (suits don't matter in this example).

Am I right or is there such a thing as a 6th card kicker, making the K-8 win?

Thoughts? Links? discuss

i dont' think so, i think the card that u have different is the card that determines the winner

you both have: pair of kings, pair of fives, Ace kicker = split pot = your friend is a moron. 😀

easy. Ask your friend what 5 cards he wants to use


Then pick the 5 cards you want to use.

WOAH SAME HAND!! Its a tie.

The other cards do not exist as far as the hand is concerned.

According to this...

If two players have the same pair then you look at the highest card outside the pair to see who wins.

Seems to me the highest card outside the pair is the A for both of you.

The pot is split. In poker you always use ONLY the best 5 cards.
