When three cards of the same rank appear on the board this is referred to as board trips.Īlthough the value of three of a kind in and of itself is the same regardless of whether it's a set or trips, a lower ranked set can beat higher-ranked trips by virtue of the fact that the requisite board pair will complete a full house for the player holding the set. In Hold 'em, this effectively would mean that a set is three-of-a-kind where two of the three are in your hand, and the third is in the community cards on the board, while trips are hands where two of the three cards are in the community cards and only one is in your hand. Some players assert that a set is in fact a special type of three-of-a-kind, where two of the three cards forming the three-of-a-kind are downcards and are therefore hidden, thus making it difficult for opponents to spot, while trips are any three-of-a-kind, including ones where two of the three are upcards. ![]() ![]() A set is a poker nickname for three of a kind. ![]()
