the King high wins cuz 2 pair on board King Kicker

player ones best 5 cards are 2 pair + K kicker
Player twos best 5 cards are 2 pair + J kicker

Player one wins by virtue of kicker.

in hold'em, your best 5-card hand plays.

in this case, both of you have two pair, 10s and 7s. The pair of 6s doesn't play.

so one hand is 10, 10, 7, 7, K
losing hand is 10, 10, 7, 7, J

No such thing as '3-pr.'

unless you have 3 hookers, then you can have 3 pairs.........

What everyone above has said: TT77K beats TT77J, so the player holding K3 wins.

It depends if the 6 is red or black

the K3 will win, their best 5 cards will be 10, 10, 7, 7, K
the other players hand would be 10, 10, 7, 7, J
even though the J6 hand has "3 pair" you can only use the best 5 card hand.

Really, we still doing this?

OK The K3s wins because they probably made a flush. The j6 cannot make a flush

"It depends"

The King high hand wins like everyone says, although I guess a flush is possible too!

i agree, must be a joke, a serious poker player would know the answer to this, so must be a flush

what every one said ... if the hand is shown down

J6 could win it if he bets enough ... shove likely takes it

But since since it's down there's no way to win it

hahahahah, the K6 wins cuz of the flush yet we don't know the suits of cards in play...This is just too funny

I like the flush comment. But, this hand should never be shown down in the first place, so I would go with J6 because he shoulda fired a couple times and just took it down.

This whole thread has to be a level.
