Winning Chip pay out

[Niallas2]

I don't think you should have split pots unless the players have exactly the same cards... for example, i beat everyone on a hand and only got just over half the chips, why have you chosen to do this like this?

I thought that i was weird when i first started playin' on this site and have been frustrated occasionaly when i've had a higher kicker but that's the way it seems to be the way it is.

In answers to your questions:

Funky G some hands do not use kickers. Flushes straights full houses and straight flushes do not use kickers, so u can not have a higher kick in those situations.


Nialas I think why this is happening to you is because you do not have enough chips to win the side pots. What that means is once you go all in, you cannot win the chips from further raises.

I hope that helped

I understand that the kicker doesn't get used in the flushes etc but when i've had 2 pair the same has happend, i might be wrong and just not payin enough attention to whats goin on.

maybe you are both using the table. for example you have Treys and sevens. So does your opponent. The Table is:

7c, 3H.

U have: 3s
Your opponent has: 3d


So you had a better kicker pre-flop but remember, there is an ace on the table. So you are both using an ace as a kicker.

but shouldn't it be the highest 5 cards?
