Kicker

In the context of poker games such as Omaha or Texas Hold’em, the term kicker is used to indicate the highest-ranked card in a player‘s hand that is not included in the combination they are playing.

When Does a Kicker Count?

Because it is not a part of a player’s winning combination, the kicker card does not come into play in the vast majority of playing scenarios.

The only situation where it does come into play is in the case of a draw. Let’s say that both players have a flush. In this scenario, the pot will be awarded to the player with the highest kicker card.
