Hi i just started playing online at xxxxxxxx and i know this is a dumb question but it's bugging me. I always wondered if there was a term for this. Let's say I have KQ against one opponent and flop something like KQ7. The turn is a 4, the river pairs the 7, and I lose to AA.

This isn't "counterfeiting," because as I understand it counterfeiting alters your hand. For example, if I had K4 on the above board, the river changes my hand from Kings over Fours to Kings over Sevens because the river seven counterfeited my pair of fours. Whereas in this hand, I flopped Kings over Queens, at the end my hand is still Kings over Queens, but I lose because AA has used the board pair to make Aces-up.

I dunno, it seems like there oughtta be a word for this. Other than "SONOFAGODDAMNBITCHYACHACHACHACH!", I mean.
