I'm kinda a newbie with texas hold'em so need some expert help here

my question is if 2 player have 2 pairs for example...

player 1 have 6d 5d
player 2 have 4d 3d

and the community is As Ah 6c 3c Kh

so basically player 1 have Ace high pair with 6
and player 2 have ace high pair with 3

so who win this hand since they both have ace high pair do you count the second pair?
what is the basic ranking rule for 2 pairs and flush?

question 2.
player 1 have Ad 3d
player 2 have kd 5d

and the community is As 5c 6c 3c Kh

player one have Ace pair and 3 pair
player two have king pair and 5 pair

who wins this hand?

question 3 what if..

player 1 have Qd 3d
player 2 have Qc 5d

and the community is As Qh 6c 6h 2h

who wins?
when does the kicker count for 2 pair or how does it count?
does texas hold'em always goes by best 5 card rule?

Player 1 wins the pot.
If there is a top pair is a tie, then move onto the second pair....
In your above example, Player 1 and 2 tie with Aces.. so you move onto the second pair.

66 is higher than 33 so Player 1 wins.

Player 1 wins this hand, because he has the biggest of hte two pair..
Aces are Higher than King.

Both players have QQ66A

They split the pot..

actually in the last hand the kicker doesn't matter does it?

both of the players best 5 card hand would be A-Q-Q-6-6, they would both split the pot, if the board didn't pair 6, then the kicker would matter.
