Top Pair - The pair with the highest card on the flop.
The term top pair is heard most often when playing Texas Hold'em poker. If a player is dealt AQ and the flop comes out
Q63 then that player would have flopped top pair. Flopping top pair is fairly common, so players should make note of
their kicker. In this case, the
player would have flopped top pair, top kicker (tptk) which makes the hand more powerful than a player who flopped top
pair, no kicker.
A pair that is higher than the cards on the board is not typically called top pair. Say for example a player has KK on
the same board of Q63, he would be said to have an
overpair.
