Hi everybody,

Does A,2,3,4,5 win over 2,3,4,5,6 because of the A?

Thanks,

Carthalion

Do you mean in a Razz Hand?

A,2,3,4,5 would win because the 5 is lower than the 6 you need to reverse it from highest to lowest. so 5432A

In poker the ace is low in a low straight so the 6 high straight wins. Hard to fold a five high straight, however, I've learned to do so when it appears likely another player has a probable higher straight. Generally speaking if a 2345 has been turned up and a player is betting big, I fold the five high straight.
