Why does this keep happening ? I win the hand and a lesser hand is paid as winner…??
It’s possible you didn’t notice that you both had two pair. He had a pair of kings and a pair of sixes (which were in the community cards). You had a pair of eights and a pair of sixes (again, in the community cards, and better than your pair of threes). His pair of kings was the highest pair, and so he won. I hope this helps. Do you know how to replay the hand? It’s good to study these.
