A Pair poker hand
A Pair is one step down from 2 pair and
one up from a High card.
Cards to make a Pair: 4, 4, 6, 9, J (1 pair of matching value cards
and 3 extra card).
If
more than 1 player has a pair then the highest pair wins.
e.g.1
Player 1: K, K, 9, 7, 2
Player 2: J, J, 6, 5, 2
Player
1 wins as their pair of Kings is higher than players 2's pair of
Jacks.
e.g.2
Player 1: Q, Q, 9, 5, 2
Player 2: Q, Q, 7, 3, 2
Player

players have the same pair and player 1's 9 beats players 2's 7
as the highest kicker.
