'A Boat' (or full boat) is the another term used for a Full House. A boat is a combination of three of a kind and two of a kind in the same hand. So a player with KKQQQ or 22666 as a hand would be said to have a Full House of Boat. In terms of strength, this is a very strong hand to make in a hand and is only beaten by Four of a Kind, a Straight Flush and a Royal Flush. Should more than one player have made a boat in the same hand, the player with the largest three card combination value would win the hand. In the example i used QQQKK would be higher than JJJAA.
It is also important to understand that a full house cannot be made unless the board pairs. When it does, you should recognize that a player may have hit their Full House.
