Poker (Texas Hold 'Em) Scenario
First of all let me apologise in advance if this is not the correct section to ask such a question...
I have learnt how to play Texas Hold 'Em poker, and I have a scenario where I can't work out what would happen. For example..
{d=diamond, c=club, s=spades, h=hearts}
Say the river was: 3d 4d 5d 6d 7d
Player 1= 2d 3h
Player 2= 9s 10s
____________________________
Now, would...
a) the pot be split (i.e. both have 3-7 straight flush)
b) hand1 win (uses one of his pocket cards to form the flush, albeit lower)
or
c) hand2 win (3-7 straight flush - 10-high)
??????????
No guesses, I need a proper answer please, much apreciated,
Alex.

in your example the pot would be split
but if one player held 8d then that would take the hand.

If there is no kicker card (the tied players have used both hole cards, or have the exact same five card hand), then the pot is split between them.
