I am real noob. poker hands order is so straightforward. We compare 5 best cards, right ?
In one online poker site, I was playing 'Ultimate Texas Holdem', found curious thing.
It might be the 'correct rule' which I do not notice.
1. Player-A has 9977A, and player-B has 9966A, who wins ? (Both Two Pairs)
2. Player-A has 9977A, and Player-B has 9977K, who wins ? (Both Two Pairs)


The site declare 'Draw'. Is this correct ? Wondering it might be the rule.
This maybe caused by software incompleteness. Thanks,

1st hand - player A wins because he has better two pair
2nd hand - player A wins because he has better kicker

Every hand has a rank. In Texas Hold'em, the strength of your hand is determined by the best combination of 5 cards you can form with your 2 pocket cards and the 5 community cards. This is done independently for each player.
