Your buddy wins guy. Using all seven cards in holdem, he ends up with two pair Q's over 3's while you have two pair 7's over 3's. When I started here, we argued over and over about how it works between hole cards and board cards but in holdem you use all seven cards to make the best five card hand. Your buddy did get lucky someone else didn't have that 3 though. Hope I helped out. Later

Just to clarify, unlike in other games, in holdem ur hand can be entirely made up of the community cards and there is nothing to say that u have to use one or both of ur hole cards so ballbp is of course right in that ur friend wins cos the higher of his two pairs is larger than urs.

Isn't it a shame three pair isn't a hand Confused
