Generally, poker follows the concept where one winner, whose poker hand ranks the highest takes it all home. In the case that both players are holding the exact same 5 cards, the pot is split. If the hand is a tie, then the higher ranked kicker wins the pot. To complete these the extra card is known as the kicker which decides if it will be a split pot or not. Some hands like a Three of a Kind or Four of a Kind, have to be complete. Based on the poker hand rankings, you can see how highly ranked your hand is. In Texas Hold’em, you use the two-face down cards dealt to you along with any five community cards on the table to form this poker hand. The aim of the game is to form the best 5-Card poker hand.
Poker is a game that is easy to learn but takes time to master.
Split Pots - Are they a waste of your time?
