...than kicker on board? In a situation where the best hands out of the 7 cards are equal but one of the kickers was in the original 2 card hand -- does that make it a better hand?
e.g. April's hand -- J 9
May's hand -- J 5
with Board showing J Q 9 Q 4
April's best hand is then Q Q J J 9
and May's is the same Q Q J J 9
Does the fact that April had the 9 in her hand matter?
Suppose the board showed Q Q J J 5
Would May's best hand still be Q Q J J 9 even though her 5 made a third pair?
Thank you to anyone who can decide this for our once friendly poker game!
