Split pot or no split pot that is the question
First of all i appologies if this has been posted before and answered, i have tried the search and cannot locate any keywords that may help answer this prediciment.
The situation, and keeping it short.
1 x player has K3 other player has K5. The community cards are 10s-10d-Q-K-2
All in all all players have a 2 pair, which totaly matches plus the remaining com cards and there low card.
What hapens o the pot?
On playing a small game over beers, practising for a little poker club there was a discussion with regards to this question.
2 people belived its a split pot (me being one) because the best hands would be the two pairs with a Q, had by both players(the best hand possible out of the 7 cards). 2 other people argued that the players low card made the final decision and that the player with the 5 had the advantage and therefore the pot.
Our poker club start soon, we're all fairly new to the game, and as I and someone both belived we new the rules we ended up with this prediciment.
Many thanks
