Message: [QUOTE="Jesus Lederer, post: 367972, member: 3283"] Are you sure twizzy that you can choose whatever 5 cards you want? From what i know about the rules, you must choose the 5 cards that make the best possible hand, so if the board shows 6-7-8-9 and you hold 5-10, then you MUST choose the 10, because the 10 high straight is better than the 9 high straight. Actually, when you show your hand you aren´t the one that choose the community cards that you want to use, that is a work for the dealer and he must choose the best hand. For example, player A holds KJ and player B holds 2Q. The board shows J222Q. In the showdown, the dealer is the one that shows player´s B 2 with the other 3 2s (he pushes a little bit the 5 best cards to separate them from the others). Player B can´t tell the dealer: "Hey, i want to use my Q instead of the 2". Well, if he go with my straight forward quote, actually player B [I]can[/I] tell that to the dealer, but the dealer is not going to do it ;) [/QUOTE]
