KKKK is a hand, 4 of a kind.
whereas, KKKKA is not a hand.
you know what i mean?
there's no such hand as a "4 of a kind plus pocket aces!"

that's what threw me off.
so what if, in a hypothetical situation, you're holding AJ, and the opponent is holding AQ? is that a split as well? or does villain win since it's KKKKA + Q kicker?

i'm confused.
5 card hand.. the does not play in the last example, only the ace. When you have quads, the kicker plays. So you have the 4 of a kind + only 1 card. KKKKA = KKKKA.

Also, I don't want to sound like an asshole, but you shouldn't play for real money. Unless it's money you don't mind losing.
Oh, I've seen many of your posts, Lukie. I already know your temperament tends towards being an asshole. That's fine with me.

Because regardless of what you may think or assume, I am still a winning player and have regained my lost bankroll (1k) in just two weeks playing 50nl (i probably broke a record with that one, since i started with $150).

ty for the enlightenment though, i don't see hands like that every day, matter of fact, in over 6 months of play and 35,000+ recorded hands, i don't think i've ever seen quads on the board once. =)
just two friendly suggestions, first, learn bankroll management. playing 50NL with $150 is not a good idea. with $1000 it's just fine, just don't move up to 100NL until you have at least $2000 in the bankroll.
secondly, re-read up on the rules. those should not be a problem, really.
