Poker Hand Question.?
hi all, i was playing poker last night and i don’t know the rules 100% yet but i thought that the pot should of been split 2 ways.
ok i had in my hand.
Jack, 4
the other guy had Jack Jack
The table had.
Queen. 10, 9, 8 and some other card i cant remember doesn’t really matter.
so we both had a straight, however he won because of his second jack he had in his hand. however they told me that if you both have the same straight it goes of the kicker card so he won.
is this right? i can understand why he won i just didn’t think it mattered and wasn’t in the rules, i thought the pot should of been split.
thank you.
john i said there was a queen.
Whoever told you that either was taking advantage of your inexperience or were equally clueless. Unless the other guy had a flush, it would have been a clear split pot – a poker hand is 5 cards…period. With two straights, there are no kickers – you both had straights to the queen and nothing else mattered.
