Pair

A hand where two of your cards have the same value (e.g. you have "two fives", or maybe you have "two Aces").  Here is an example of a hand that would be considered a "Pair":

7 of diamonds  5 of spades  2 of hearts  7 of hearts  3 of stars

We would call that hand "A Pair of Sevens".

Even if there are three of a kind or two pair, it will still be true that there is a pair when asked.

7 of diamonds  5 of spades  2 of hearts  7 of hearts  7 of stars
