the 5 cards on the table was A, 10, 3, clubs and 8h, 3s. in my hand i have K,8 clubs and the other player has 6,7 clubs
who would win the pot??

thanks mark

The player with the 5c in his hand wins. The other player has a flush K-J-7-4-3. You player with the 5 has a flush K-J-7-5-4. The five plays.

It seems you’ve understood the rule regarding a flush on the table.

I can’t agree with your complaint about this rule though.
The poker rules are always about the best 5 card-hand. A poker hand is never judged by only the highest card. If two players have a flush it can only be a split pot if the same 5 cards counts as the best possible hand for both players.

For example, if you have 2h 8h and your opponent has 4h 5h on a board like: Ah Kh Qh Jh 9h. You will split the pot, because none of your hole cards makes the best 5 card hand.

As for the two pair example it seems you’ve got it slightly wrong. If you have AK and your opponent have A3 on a board like A K 3 9 7, you will take down the pot as your second pair is bigger than his.

I am sitting with 9h and 7h in pocket. The other player sit with pocket 8h and 6h. Actually we have both flush highest A because of the Ah on the flop but it seems it doesn’t work like that because I will win the pot due to the 9h highest in hand.

I think this rule is sucks and cant work like this we should split the pot.

For example I sit with 2 pair A and K and the other person sit with 2 pair A and 3, according to the rule we will split the pot but I have the K pair and he have the 3.

I would appreciate if you can reply on this issue. Maybe is the rules different from other poker sites.
