Another killer hand in most forms of poker is four of a kind. The thing about four of
a kind, is that while it can be beaten by another four of a kind, like say you've got
four Kings and you can be beaten by four Aces. In most cases, you're going to have the very
best hand. I have been playing poker seriously for four years now. And in that time, in Texas
Holdem, I've only had a four of a kind, one time, that lost. All of the other times that
I've managed to make four of a kind with a hand, I've won. There is one time, I had four
nines and lost to four Aces. So, that should tell you its a very powerful hand. If you
look down and you catch four of a kind, play it to the end. Recently I was playing against
someone in a very loose game with wild cards. Kind of just playing for fun, and they actually
folded four Aces. No one else at the table could believe it. If you have four of a kind
play it to the end.
