One more question....



Posted Tue Jan 13, 2004 9:22 pm GMT by superbuddy20
Okay, do you split the pot on flushes?

Example:

Player A: 3h, 7h
Player B: 2h, 8h

Community Cards: Qh, Jh, 10h, 4h, 5s


Who wins or is it a split?


What if Player A only had one Heart, would that make a difference?

What if the Flush was on the community cards only, would that make a difference?


Thanks for any help.

In this case player B wins because both players have the following best hands.

A has:
Qh Jh 10h 7h 4h

B has
Qh Jh 10h 8h 4h

Notice if you go from left to right it is
Code:

Plyr A  Plyr B     Result
  Q        Q        Tie        1st Best Card
  J        J        Tie        2nd Best Card
  T        T        Tie        3rd Best Card
  7        8        B wins     4th Best Card


5th best is irrelivant

In flushes, the only time it is split is when all five cards are the same physical card (ie: all in the pot). I don't think there is another way to have a split pot on a flush (unless you're crap is so phat you crack your toilet).

B wins by 1 card.
