What is the term for a hand that contains one pair and two cards of the same rank?

[Hasan77]

The term for a hand that contains one pair and two cards of the same rank is called a "two pair" hand in traditional poker terminology. In a two pair hand, there are two distinct pairs of cards, along with a fifth unmatched card. This hand is typically ranked higher than a single pair but lower than a three-of-a-kind hand in most poker games.




What is the term for a hand that contains one pair and two cards of the same rank?

 

[CR7]

The term for a hand that contains one pair and two cards of the same rank is actually called a "full house." In a full house hand, you have three cards of the same rank and a pair of cards of another rank. For example, if you have a pair of kings and two queens, your hand would be called a "full house, kings full of queens." Full house hands are considered to be strong in poker and typically rank higher than a two pair hand.

 

[Omelaa]

A "full house" refers to a hand with a pair and two cards of the same rank. This comprises three cards of one rank and a pair of another rank, like having two kings and three queens, known as "full house, kings full of queens." In poker, full house hands are regarded as strong.

I think full house refers to a hand that consists of three cards of one rank and two cards of another rank, such as three aces and two kings, known as "full house, aces over kings." A full house is considered a strong hand in poker, and beats hands such as flushes, straights, and three of a kind.

A hand with two cards of the same rank and one pair is referred to as a two pair hand. Two sets of pairs, each consisting of two cards of the same rank plus an unrelated fifth card, make up a two pair hand in poker.

A hand with two cards of the same rank and one pair is referred to as a two pair hand. Two sets of pairs, each consisting of two cards of the same rank plus an unrelated fifth card, make up a two pair hand in poker.

That's correct, a two pair hand in poker is made up of two sets of pairs, each consisting of two cards of the same rank and an unrelated fifth card. The hand is then ranked based on the highest pair first, followed by the second highest pair and then the unrelated fifth card (kicker).
