Default Re: hi-lo rule clarification

Personally, I wouldn't play there again. If there is a chance that I'm going to get my ass kicked for claiming what is rightfully mine, I'll find someplace else to play.

I imagine that this is covered in Robert's Rules, which are linked in the FAQ.

You are, of course, correct. You get the high half of the pot and the other two guys split the low half of the pot. If you guys take up Omaha/8, make sure you get this straight, because it comes up a lot in that game.

You might watch a loose O/8 game online and get a screen grab of an appropriate scenario. Don't know if that would be enough to convince them.

Or you could just tell 'em Andy B said so. That should carry a lot of weight. I haven't been in a fist fight in over twenty years, though, so I'm not apt to be of any use on that front.
