Described as "three full of two", so the hand shown is "Jacks full of Fours". Compare full houses by the three of a kind first; only if that is equal does the pair decide.

A full house becomes possible only when the board is paired. If you hold a flush on a paired board, be careful.

Beats: Flush and everything below.
