How do you want to break a tie in Texas Hold-em poker?
This happened the other night and we did not know what to do … in fact two people was bound (two 10's IIRC), the highest card wins that – but both shared the highest card. So you have then down to the next higher Card (if it is not common) or they have only divided the pot? So I'll break the example. Player A has a 10 and a jack. Player B has a 10 and a 9th The local maps show, Queen, 10, 5, 3, 2 If Player A wins by the Jack (the next highest card after the Queen), or they will split the pot because they share the Map high? We ended up deciding that they split the pot … but I would like to know the official verdict.
Top five cards to play, always – all other cards never enter it. In this case, A and B has TTQJ5 TTQ95, so A wins. If instead of A and B had T6 T4 with the Board AQT92, both would have would not have been playing TTAQ9 hole kicker, resulting in a split pot.
