What is the term for a hand that contains two cards of one rank and two cards of another rank, with the fifth card being of a different rank?

[Hasan77]

The term you're referring to is a "two pair" in poker. In a two pair hand, there are two cards of one rank, two cards of another rank, and the fifth card is of a different rank. For example, if you have two Aces, two Kings, and a Queen, you would have a two pair consisting of Aces and Kings with a Queen kicker. Two pair is a relatively strong hand in poker, but it can be beaten by higher-ranking hands such as three of a kind, a straight, a flush, a full house, four of a kind, a straight flush, and a royal flush.

The term you are looking for is a "two pair" hand. In poker, a two pair hand consists of two cards of one rank, two cards of another rank, and the fifth card being of a different rank. This hand is ranked just below three of a kind and above one pair. For example, if you have two Jacks, two Queens, and a 7, you would have a two pair hand consisting of Jacks and Queens with a 7 kicker. Two pair hands can be strong depending on the ranks of the pairs and the kicker. However, they can be beaten by higher-ranked hands like a straight, a flush, a full house, four of a kind, a straight flush, and a royal flush.

I think that You are correct; a hand that contains two cards of one rank, two cards of another rank, and the fifth card being of a different rank is indeed a two pair hand. Thank you for clarifying this for me.
