    Player 1. Whoever has the higher 3 of a kind wins (and if that's the same, then whoever has the higher pair).

    Yep--

    tens full of fours
    beats
    fours full of kings.

    What's truly painful is a situation where:

    player 1 has 22
    player 2 has AA

    board of 42K rainbow. Player 1 pushes and player 2 calls.
    Turn: K
    River: K

    Player 1 was ahead on the flop with a set of twos, still ahead on the turn with a full house twos full of kings, but loses on the river with kings full of twos versus player 2's kings full of aces.

    my favorite is when you and your opponent share a boat. like...

    hand 1: AA
    hand 2: T T
    board: T 8 8 8

    obvioulsy, AA is behind here, but prolly thinks he is good.

    now watch this, since you asked the question and had a spot of trouble with the last one...

    who wins when the fourth 8 hits the river?

    AA
    TT

    T8888

    i've seen people miss this one, rare as it is, twice in the past week. fortunately, i was the benefactor here both times.

    some newer guys fail to see their TT just got counterfieted off. and my AA now have the nuts.
    LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

    Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

    Actually isn't it a split pot for four of a kind?
    Never bet on a white man in the heavyweight division!

    yeah, a buddy of mine had a boat
    pocket 5s
    flop came, 5-K-K
    turn K
    river K.
    Other guy had A2os.
    friend experienced a bad beat.

    The thing I hate is that I was in a h2h sng, and I had Pocket 9s,
    2 pairs on the board. JJ QQ 3
    Guy with the King won. Kinda pissed me off a tad bit. But hey, thats poker right?
