Which Full House Wins?

Hello,

I believe you once said that “To determine if one full house higher ranked then another, first look at the three cards of the same kind. The one that is larger wins. If they both are the same then you’ll have to compare the two cards”. Can you explain it to me more? I believe the case by which both are the same is something impossible as that would require six cards of the same kind. What do you think?

By the way, your site is so good. Keep up the good work!

Strauss,

Texas Holdem and Omaha Poker are the only times that there are exceptions to this rule. For example, let’s say the board was J-J-J-4-5 and you held 6-6 and your opponent held 3-3. Both of you have Jacks full, but you would win since you are jacks full of sixes. Since Holdem and Omaha have shared cared in the middle, two players having the same hand is possible since you make your best five card hand between the five in the middle and two in your hand.
