In Ace-to-Five lowball games, the goal is to make the lowest possible hand, where straights and flushes are ignored, and Aces are always counted as low. The best possible hand under this system is A-2-3-4-5, also known as a “wheel.”
Ace-to-Five Example
For example, if you are dealt A-3-4-6-7, this would be considered a lower hand than 2-3-4-5-9, as the 7 ranks lower than the 9 in this system.
