Hi my question is pretty simple...

[J.R.]

It's pretty much the only thing I don't entirely understand in hold'em.



I'll try my best to explain what I'm talking about. Sorry if I over-complicate it.

Sometimes while playing I've ended up having something like a J/5 vs a J/3 but it turned out to be a split pot.
Now from what I understand it's because there was 2 or 3 cards on the board that were higher than my 2 cards.
To me I always figured the better hand wins but is it the above that's correct?


Any and all information would be very much appreciated. Thank you.
