econ_tim 0 Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 You start with the highest card in the hand (Ace counts as high in 2-7). If two hands that are unpaired, unflushed, etc. are tied for the high card then you look at the next highest card in each hand. The one with the lowest second-highest card would win. If the two highest cards are tied, look at the third highest card, etc.For example, 8-7-5-3-2 beats 8-7-6-3-2.And 9-8-5-4-3 beats 9-8-6-3-2. Link to post Share on other sites
Rex4334 0 Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 In short look at the highes 2 cards in your hand. For example, if you held 8 7 6 5 3, you would say "i have an eight-seven". If another player then had 8 6 5 3 2, it would be classified as an eight-six and it would beat your hand. If your highest two cards are tied, proceed through your cards in descending order and whom ever has the lowest cards wins(ex 8 7 5 4 3 2 beats 8 7 6 4 3 2). It is important to note that straights and flushed do count. Link to post Share on other sites

elkang 0 Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 I'm playing this game too now... definitely should be on every poker players list. DN writes a great treatment in SS2 and learned from Juanda. Link to post Share on other sites

jtwoms 0 Posted May 23, 2005 Author Share Posted May 23, 2005 Do they have a section for 2-7 in SS1? I'm to lazy to go downstairs to check. Link to post Share on other sites
econ_tim 0 Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Do they have a section for 2-7 in SS1? I'm to lazy to go downstairs to check.There's a "lowball" section in SS1. But DN wrote a 2-7 triple draw section for SS2. Link to post Share on other sites
jtwoms 0 Posted May 23, 2005 Author Share Posted May 23, 2005 Strategy wise how much different is it than the other lo games? And how good is DN's section? Might be extra incentive to get SS2. Link to post Share on other sites
