Atrik 0 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Alright let's assume this:Player 1: Ace of Clubs - Jack of SpadesPlayer 2: 10 of Clubs - 10 of SpadesHere's the debate: Is this a split pot or does player 1 win the hand.Either way they both made an Ace High flush.P1's arguement is he made his flush with the Jack of Spades which is higher than the 10 of Spades.P2's arguement is it doesn't matter, its a split pot because they both made an Ace High flush.These situations suck, especially when you don't know how or when the split pot rule gets taken into effect.So is it a split pot or does player 1 win the pot?

hblask 1 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 The J is higher than the 10 and therefore wins. All five cards count./thread Link to post Share on other sites

Hockey Guy 4 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 AsJs9s7s5s beats As10s9s7s5sThis is like asking if a 23456 is a split pot against a 45678 because they are both straights. Obviously 1 is better than the other. Link to post Share on other sites
timwakefield 68 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 If it's a friendly game just chop it up. Even if it's like a pair vs a pair I like to chop it up in friendly games. In fact, we chop nearly every pot. Nobody really profits but nobody loses either, so it works out. This is like asking if a 23456 is a split pot against a 45678 because they are both straights. Obviously 1 is better than the other.I'd chop that up too. Link to post Share on other sites

In fact, we chop nearly every pot. Nobody really profits but nobody loses either, so it works out....and don't forget...two pair beats trips everytime. cuz 1 pair (2 cards) + 1 pair (2 cards) > trips (3 cards). It's basic mathematics.

Atrik 0 Posted September 12, 2007 Author Share Posted September 12, 2007 Wow, thanks for the quick replies.And no this is not a joke, clearly I'm an amatuer and it would be nice to have a little bit of respect.The reason for the arguement for the split pot again was in the end it was an Ace High Flush, but now I understand the AJ and A10. Thanks again. Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks again.Alright, this can't POSSIBLY be real, but in case it is, I'll play along. If the board is 438KK and player 1 has A8 and player 2 has 98 it's not a chop is it? Same principle applies. You make your best FIVE card hand.I can't believe I feel for it. Link to post Share on other sites
BeaverStyle 1 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 If two players have flushes (more specifically flushes of different suits) then you count down, From the highest card to the lowest, and whoever has the lower card first, loses. This obviously only applies to 7 card Stud, which is why I think your buddy was confused. Obviously, in hold-em, the higher flush wins. That means, the highest value card you have to play for the flush, is the flush you've made.Hblask basically had it covered.An example in stud, if someone shows A K 5 3 2 flush in spades, and another player shows A K 10 4 2 in hearts, Player 2 wins with the AK10 flush.... Get it?Cool. I'm going to bed. Link to post Share on other sites
fighter 4 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 I remember when I was short stacked at a tournament with K high and went all in. Got called by a pocket pair of tens. Board comes J J 4 J J The table said it was a split pot because it is called "four of a kind" and not four of a kind best kicker. I hate logic Link to post Share on other sites

I hate logicReminds me of the NBC HU Championships, when Kristy Gazes was playing Chad Brown. Dealer starts pushing the pot to Brown with 4 of a kind on board (he had a king kicker), and she's like 'Ummm... excuse me? It's a chop, we've both got 4 of a kind!'.No Kristy, you dumb b1tch. No, you don't. Link to post Share on other sites
Balloon guy 158 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 In TournyCash Texas Hold Em the J would get 60% of the pot and the 10 would get 40% of the pot.It's the newest thing Link to post Share on other sites
