This is two-card poker played high-low. Two cards are dealt to each player face down. There is a betting round and then each player may discard and draw up to two cards. After another betting round, the best high and low hands split the pot. Since the ace can be used high or low, it is possible to win both ways if your hand contains an ace, or even a pair of aces. A pair is almost a sure winner, but the average high hand is a king high. A five-high makes a strong low hand.
