| lilcopa21 Member since: Jun 29, 2011 Threads: 1 Posts: 6 | What card game is it possible for a 5 card hand of two different pair with an Ace kicker to beat a Royal Flush? State an example of such a hand and why it wins as well as the game? This is a trivia question at my work which has us all stumped. |

| TheNightfly Member since: May 21, 2010 Threads: 22 Posts: 405 | In Cribbage, if after pegging the two players count their hands, a hand of 7,7,8,8 will "beat" a hand of suited 10,J,Q,K if the A has been cut. The first player will have 14 points (15-2,15-4,15-6,15-8,15-10,pair-12,pair14) and the second player will have 10 points (straight-5,flush-10). I don't know if this answers the question but it's all I could think of. Happiness is underrated |

| lilcopa21 Member since: Jun 29, 2011 Threads: 1 Posts: 6 | Yeah I tried that but the two different pair cannot include the ace. I am glad I wasn't the only one who tried that theory |

| rdw4potus Member since: Mar 11, 2010 Threads: 57 Posts: 1976 | 2s2cQsQcKsKcAs beats 10d10hJdJhQhKhAh on most house-ways in pai gow poker. Those hands contain the hands QsQcKsKcAs and 10hJhQhKhAh.

| lilcopa21 Member since: Jun 29, 2011 Threads: 1 Posts: 6 | I thought it may have been. I have to clarify if the game is only 5 cards or if 7 cards qualify. But thanks for you help |
