Some players will make two pairs that include a pair on the board. They either have a pair in the pocket or they pair one of their pocket cards. They fail to realize that everyone else also has at least a pair. In this situation, you essentially have a single pair. If it is higher than the board pair you still have a playable hand. If your pocket pair is lower than the board pair you will save money by folding this hand whenever you are in this situation. Poker expert Mike Caro astutely points out that if the board pairs it is bad news unless it helps you exclusively. There are also other considerations you need to be aware of when a pair is on board:

How many people are in the hand?
Again we look at the importance of knowing how many active players are in the hand. The more players who see the flop, the more likelihood that one of them have made trips. If there are five or more players, it is almost certain that someone will benefit from the pair. If it is not you then you must be prepared to fold if there is betting and raising.
What is the strength of the pair?

The higher the value of the pair also relates to the chance that someone will have made trips. If it is an Ace or a face card, there is more
0f a chance that one or two players will be holding one of these cards. jt js possible for two players to make trips when there is a pair on board.
Is a Full House possible?

Whenever there is a pair on board there is always the possibility that a player has a full house or can make a full house. You should pay close attention to the relationship of the other cards on board to the pair. If there is a connecting card or an Ace then there is a greater chance of a player holding a potential full house. If the flop was

many players will play connectors as a starting hand. In this case a player with 7-8 in the pocket will have made a full house. If the flop was 8-8-3, there is less likelihood of a player having 8-3 in the pocket.

There should also be a full house alert that sounds whenever you see an Ace and a pair on the flop. Since many players will play an Ace with any card, there is the possibility that they have made a full house if they match their second card.

Here is a money-saving tip I learned the hard way: If you have a four flush and there is a pair on board, fold your hand if the pot is multiway and there is a lot of action. Any time there is a pair on the flop the value of a flush draw is greatly reduced. You could be drawing dead against a player with trips drawing to a full house. You will make the flush about 35 percent of the time. However, your opponent will turn his trips into a full house about 33 percent of the time. The °dds are about the same, but you have the lesser hand. The money you save by folding this hand will outweigh the money you will lose m the long run in this situation. Whenever you see a pair flop on board you should proceed with caution. Be prepared to fold if are not helped by it.
