My brother and I are debating a point in Hold 'Em. If the high card of the flush is on the board, and two players have the flush, do they split the pot or does whoever has the highest hole card win it all?

Example:

Board: A /forums/images/icons/spade.gif 4 /forums/images/icons/spade.gif 7 /forums/images/icons/spade.gif T /forums/images/icons/heart.gif 2 /forums/images/icons/diamond.gif
Hand 1: K /forums/images/icons/spade.gif 9 /forums/images/icons/spade.gif
Hand 2: Q /forums/images/icons/spade.gif J /forums/images/icons/spade.gif

Who wins?

Hand 1 wins because he has the Ace-King high flush while hand two only has an Ace-Queen high flush

You have the best 5 card hand. You win.

Another example

The board is: J-J-J-J-Q

You hold A9
Your opponent holds QQ

You win, 4 jacks, ace kicker beats his 4 jacks, queen kicker.
