When 2 or more have a flush you go by who has the higher flush. Therfore Ace high flushes are the best. But what if A K 10 is on board and I hold J and 4, and my opponant holds the Q? I thought we would split becasue we both made a flush but since we are both using the A, our hand value ties. Am i incorrect and could somone direct me to some sort of official resource that proves your answer? Thanks

Sorry, I don't have an "official resource"...however, your opponent would win. Since you both hold the A K, you go to the next card. If you both hold identical flushes (you both have the board as your flush) the pot is split.

to clarify, if the board is AKQ (diamonds) rag, rag
You Hold J/3 diamonds opponent holds 7/2 diamonds you would win.
The latter of ninjas post where he talks about a slilt would be if the board was all diamonds and neither of you held a diamond
ex. same board but you have J/3 spades, opponent had 7/2 clubs
hope it helps

The only time you split a pot is when the board has a higher flush such as, AKQJ8 of diamonds, you hold the 6 and someone else the 5 you split it, or if neither of you have diamonds and its a board full of diamonds or, if the board is AK985 and you have no diamonds and he has the 3 you split because he cant beat the board flush. Now if you hold the 9 and he holds 8 and the flush on the board cant beat yours, you win. If who ever had the highest card in the flush, such as a 10 and someone the 7 and someone else the 6 and the board has the Ace of diamonds you cant all split the pot, because what would really be the point of a flush?
