Why would an ace two kings and two queens beat two kings two queens and two tens in poker?

Question

My partner and I were playing poker on the computer.

The five cards drawn were 2 kings, 2 queens and a ten.

We had a ten also giving us 2 kings, 2 queens and 2 tens. Or three pairs.

The computer player's hand was an ace 2 kings and 2 queens.

Why did it win?

Answer 1

in poker, the aim is to have the best 5 card hand, so 3 pairs doesn't exist. then, if you both have 2 pairs of the same cards, you have to see who has the next highest card. since your five cards were 2 kings, 2 queens and a ten and the computers was 2 kings, 2 queens and an ace, the computer won because an ace is higher than a ten.

Answer 2

Because there is no such thing as 3 pairs.  What you have is two pairs with a ten and the computer has two pairs with an ace.  So it wins.

Answer 3

three pair doesnt exist

the aim is to assemble the best five card hand

so player 2 has 2K, 2Q, 1A, but

     player 1 has 2K, 2Q, and a 10

since A beats 10, player 2 wins
