Did you know that participating in a poker forum can help you improve your own game? Be it by sharing experiences or simply asking for help, participation in a forum helps you focus and keep 'on topic' which will help you improve your game. You can learn from other players feedback and from their experiences. Why the THP poker forums? We offer one of the best managed texas holdem poker forums available, and the community within is far more friendly than those typicaly found on other sites. We've made a 'lurkers edition' of the poker forum available here on Holdem Poker Online, but we encourage all visitors to register and join in on the conversations on TexasHoldem-Poker.com

Player 2 wins w/ a piar of 8s, K high...here's why:
In Texas Hold'em, each player makes the best 5 card poker hand w/ any of their hole cards and the board....so here's the results:
Player one has a pair of 8s, Queen high w/ 8 8 Q 9 5
Player two has a pair of 8s, King high w/ 8 8 K 9 7
In your second example, the pot is split, with both players playing the board royal flush A K Q J 10
