    Default Texas Holdem Question

    Suppose player 1 has 6h and 3d pocket cards and player 2 has 6c and 4s.

    The community cards come 6d, As, 10d, 8h, 5s.

    Player 1 and 2 have a pair of 6's. My question is can you use the ace on the board as a kicker or does your second pocket card count as your kicker? Who would win this hand?
    Thanks, Nate

    himself fucker.
    The rule is make your best five card hand. So there hands are identical (save the suits of the sixes) and they split the pot.

    you *must* use the best five cards. so the ace is the kicker.

    player 1 shows
    6h, 6d, As, 10d, 8h

    player 2 shows
    6c, 6d, As, 10d, 8h

    another case is when the board is:
    Ace King Queen Jack Ten, hearts. dosn't matter what the players cards are, it's a split pot.

    For clarity:

    Their hands are:

    Player 1 has :Td:
    Player 2 has :Td:

    EDIT- And it seems everyone else made it very clear.

    "View more Emoticons"
    "CARDS ON" (One word, theres a sticky somewhere about it)
    or just type Colon (Value of Card) (Suit of Card) Colon
    like :[T][d]: or :[8][s]: without the brakets
