Default Re: What is the complete order of ranks in 13-card lowball?

In 7-card lowball, which is higher (or lower), AAAA432 or KKKQQQ2?

In 13-card lowball, if we use conventional thinking that rarest == highest, we get some weird results: The wheel, A23456789TJQK is the highest, followed by one pair.

The "worst" (lowest) hands would be 3-3-2-2-1-1-1 and 3-2-2-2-1-1-1-1. loball wiki

It would be nice to come up with a rational set of rules that would also allow for a playable game. I've only played TDLB with massive numbers of cards a few times, and don't remember any problems, but can foresee disputes.
