Why are low hands read from the top down anyway? My A,5,6,7,8 should beat 2,3,4,5,6 because I have an ace. I got the lowest card.

Because 65,432 is a lower number than 87,651.

How would you like it if you went to buy a house, and the owner said, "Why should we read the asking price from the top down? I'd rather read it from the bottom up? Therefore, you have to pay me $87,651 instead of $65,432."

I really doubt you'd like that [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
