Two flushes, pot not split?

[MathBabe]

The entire hand history is below, but here is the part relevant to my question:
*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot $11.85 | Rake $0.40
Board [Ac 2c 6c Qd 8c]
Seat 1: Mianso (small blind) folded before Flop
Seat 2: Trommelstock (big blind) showed [Kc 7c] and won ($11.45) with a flush, Ace high
Seat 3: myjanniki mucked [Ah Tc]

Didn't Trommelstock and myjanniki both have an Ace-high flush? Shouldn't they have split the pot? It says myjanniki mucked, not that he folded.

If it's because Trommelstock's Kc is higher than myjanniki's Tc, then I've misunderstood flushes all along!

All flushes are not equal. An AK flush beats an AT flush.

So AcKc8c7c6c > AcTc8c6c2c

[Reel Deal]

You've misunderstood flushes all along.

[jillaj]

That is correct. Hopefully it hasn't cost you too much money.

[Kurn]

If it's because Trommelstock's Kc is higher than myjanniki's Tc, then I've misunderstood flushes all along!

Regardless of what the hands are, the winning hand in any poker game is the best 5-card hand.

Seat 2 has: Ac Kc 8c 7c 6c
Seat 3 has: Ac Tc 8c 6c 2c

Thus seat 2 clearly has the better hand.

whoa.

[Talking Poker]

That's what I was going to say!

WOW. How long have you been playing poker and this is the first time you've ever seen a hand where two people both had a flush???

It's not just the TOP card that counts, silly. It's the best five card poker hand.

[Reel Deal]

Hey, go easy on the Babe... there was no math involved in this issue so cut her some slack!

[Talking Poker]

Yeah, just the whole "What Beats What" poker hand rankings thing!

[Gordogg]

I'm utterly amazed.
