Three of a kind
Three cards of the same rank, with two unmatched side cards.
Rank 7 of 10 poker hands.
How it’s made
- Three cards of one rank plus two unrelated cards (if those two also pair up, it becomes a full house).
Example hand
8♠ 8♥ 8♦ K♠ 3♥
Odds
- 2.11%(1 in 47)
- 54,912 out of 2,598,960 possible 5-card hands
Breaking ties between the same hand
- Compare the rank of the triple first, then the two kickers from highest to lowest if tied.
Common mistakes
- Check whether the two side cards match each other — if they do, the hand is a full house, not three of a kind.
