aces are high and low in every kind of poker that i'm aware of other than 2-7. in this situation they are low because that's how you make your best 5 card hand, the same thing would happen if 2 people had a full house in razz.

I just remembered a really sick hand from Sunday.

150/300 Stud hilo regular (no qualifier for low), mike the jeweler limps with like a 4 in the door, I complete (AA)4, george calls with an 8. 4th i catch an A mike gets a T george gets a 5, I bet both call, 5th mike has 4T4, george is like 855 and I'm A4J, I bet, george raise mike call, I 3bet both call, 6th george is 855K, mike is 4T4paint and I'm A4J2 I bet they both call

river I fill with a deuce and bet, george calls, mike raises, I 3bet, george folds really fast and mike calls. I turn my hand over and pull my bets back bc its obv gonna be a chop

mike tables 888 for his hole cards so his hand is 88844paintT, I have AAA224J my low is a pair of aces, his is a pair of fours. I have scooped the pot with a full house in hilo regular.

first off, playing w/ no qualifier your low is 22A4J and you scoop.

second off, wtf is with playing no qualifier?

that is some sick sh*t right there. what is the structure (ante? bring in?) ... same as stud 8? if it is must be a crazy action game.

pretty sure my low is AAJ42 but it doesn't really matter because i scoop no matter what in this spot. when the hand happened i remember yosh saying something like "wow he has a pair of aces for low" while i was realizing i was going to scoop the pot. don't remember exactly what happened after bc i was pretty drunk, i just remember stacking the dollars

structure depends on what size we are playing exactly but basically bi is either 1/3 or 1/4 of small bet and ante is 1/4 or 1/6

It actually *should be* a much nittier game than stud/8.

fun for the one sober guy who takes all the money cuz he's the only one who can read his hand

Re: November Low-Content Thread
 

the simple solution to this is have everyone drinking. i play so tight these days, especially in mixed games, that i think i would have to be like blackout drunk for it to make me not a huge favorite in a game like this one was

Quick Q for the Commerce regulars:

What % of 40-80 players do you think are millionaires outside of poker? I think it must be close to 50%, but someone else thought it was much lower.

What exactly is a millionaire? We need a more clear definition.
