You have to use exactly 2 of your 4 hole cards, and exactly 3 of the 5 board cards. So you can't have a 4-card flush with your QSpade and the 4 spades on the board.

The best hand you can make is two pair, Aces and Kings with an 8 kicker from the board, using the Ah Kh from your hand, and the As Ks 8x from the board.

Your opponent makes three of a kind, Eights with the 8c in his hand, and the 8s and 8h on the board, plus the As on the board and the Ts in his hand for kickers.
