Texas Hold\'em HI/LO
One of the local games I frequent has decided to start a round-n-round of Omaha Hi/Lo and Texas Hold'em Hi/Lo. Any input is appreciated as far as starting hands or game concepts on the Texas Hold'em Hi/Lo.
Thanx

Re: Texas Hold\'em HI/LO
Ive always wondered why ive never heard of texas holdem high low as i dont see any reason why it wouldnt be played, maybe lows are too easy to make? Infact what if there is a low on the board, then the player with say top set would be well pissed off. Hard one.

Re: Texas Hold\'em HI/LO
I would imagine it isn't played because it would be extremely hard to scoop a pot. You would usually need a straight or a flush to have two live cards to qualify for a low and even then your low hand might not be best.

I've played this in a home game before and we played it w/o a qualifier. There was a ton of action but my game was full of rich idiots.

Re: Texas Hold\'em HI/LO
OK, here's how the game was played:
everyone received two cards down then a round of betting, three cards up on the green felt for everyone to enjoy and a round of betting, turn card and a round of betting, then everyone left is dealt a card down followed with a round of betting. You can use one, two or all three cards in your hand! At $10-20, there were some nice pots to be had(or not!) I think after one more night I should have a pretty good feel for the game.
