I usually only play with ace high.

 

[JustAnAverageGuy]

Ace = 1

Deuce = 2

2 > 1

 

[KLin]

yes it is. The ace in that case is the low card.

Durrr...

 

[Tylanner]

Thank God it's only paper money

 

[tfinch2]

How was this ever questionable?

 

[Goosemaster]

don't laugh, just chuckle, because there are some games out there where a bicycle straight (A-5) is the biggest straight possible

edit: or at least second biggest

 

[Mrvile]

Still, you should try to learn all the hands in poker before you start playing online and such...

isn't that lowball or hi/lo where you're actually supposed to be chasing the lowest possible hand tho?

 

[Cawchy87]

hi/lo where it is considered the highest and lowest possible hand.

Also known as the bicycle.
