Poker Strategies
After receiving pocket cards, you are immediately faced with a choice: play your cards and either raise or call the blinds, or fold.
Practice Matters
In playing for high, I recommend that you play any hand that you
In playing for high, I recommend that you play any hand that you would play in regular Draw Texas Hold'em Poker, and in addition, remember that any possible low four-card flush or straight may turn out to be a low hand. The majority of players usually draw for low rather than for high. The high hands may run slightly higher than those in Draw Texas Hold'em Poker, and the low hands not much worse than the low hands in Lowball. As a rule it is better to draw to a good high possibility than to a good low one.
22. Draw Poker, High-Low Declare
22. Draw Online Hold'em Poker, High-Low Declare Played the same as Draw Online Hold'em Poker High-Low with the following exceptions. The big difference is that if a player declares for a high hand, straights and flushes count. If he declares for a low hand, straights and flushes don't count. The ace is considered the lowest-ranking card, and bicycle (5-4-3-2-A) is the cinch low hand. The game is played with a simultaneous declaration described under General Rules for Online Hold'em Poker, page 46.
