When you are playing high low split everybody goes low you go high, but
all you have is an ace high can you still win high? Its not a run, but it it high?:confused:

If ace high is the best high hand then yes, it wins the high half of the pot.

It's normal for the low hand to have a "qualifier" (eg: you can't use any cards higher than an eight in making your low hand) but I've never heard of a version where there's a qualifier for the high hand.
