Hi I´m a new member and player and I was playing last night and I had and the other guy had and the flop was and then turn and river Why wasn´t I the winner?
the poker hand consists of 5 cards, your opponent had A10 in hand and your A8 so the moves are completed in the following way: your opponent AA 22 10 and you have AA 22 8. your opponent's kiker is higher than yours. you must take into account estgo at the time of playing.

You both have AA and 22 in your hand, but the hand is made of 5 cards, not 4 cards. So your hand then goes to the 5th card to see who has a higher hand and he plays his ten which is higher than your 8. If you have A8 and he has AT and the board were A Q 2 2 5 then it would be a split pot. You both would have AA 22 Q for your 5 card hand.
