Boat

The boat is a slang term for a full house combination that consists of three of a kind and a pair.

This word is seldom used in professional poker, although it is widespread in informal games. It is worth mentioning that it is one of the strongest holdings in poker, so you should be pretty happy whenever you have a boat.

The full house is ranged based on the hand's strongest three-card combination, making aces full of kings the strongest possible boat. For example, 77722 beats 666AA since three sevens rank higher than three sixes.
