Three of a kind is a made hand, made of three (3) cards of the same rank. A player has Three of a kind if the board cards, plus both of his own hole cards make 3 cards of the same rank. If only the board has 3 cards of the same rank, we say that all active players have (at least) Three of a Kind. A variant of Three of a kind is called a Set, which occurs when the player has a pocket-pair and a 3rd card of the same rank shows on board (eg. 88 on an 8KA).
