Omaha High-Low

 

Omaha High-Low is played just like Omaha with one big difference, the pot can be split if there is a qualifying low hand.

What is a low hand? Any five card hand with five unpaired cards that are 8 or lower. Aces count as low, with flushes and straights not effecting the value of a low hand. The best possible low hand is A2345, and it is possible for the best low hand to also be the best high hand which would earn the player the entire pot. The worst qualifying low hand is an 8 high straight, 8-7-6-5-4.

Examples:
7-5-4-3-2 beats 7-6-3-2-A
8-6-5-4-2 beats 8-7-4-3-2
6-5-4-2-A beats 6-5-4-3-2
