A full house in a hand of online poker refers to a hand contains three cards of one rank, and two cards of another rank, such as 4 4 4 5 5 or 8 8 8 K K. A full house loses to four of a kind and a straight flush but beats regular flushes and straights and so on.

The value of a full house in online poker versus another full house is determined first by the rank of the cards that make up the set of three, wherein a hand that has K K K for its three of a kind would beat all other kinds of full houses except for A A A, each time regardless of what the value of the two of a kind cards are. Therefore, 8 8 8 2 2 would beat 7 7 7 A A, even though the aces are clearly higher than the deuces as kickers.

In the event that both full houses have the same rank of cards for their three of a kind, the evaluation then goes to the rank of the 2 paired cards, where K K K 8 8 would beat K K K 7 7, and so on.

The odds of making a full house in a five card poker online hand is 0.144%.
