This would have been either 7 stud or pineapple hi - low. I'll have to see if any of my game logs have an example. I remember being confused when I played the same game on different sites and had what I thought was winning low not win. Now that I know the easy way to figure it, it should be pretty easy to see if there was anything out of the ordinary going on.

I can't remember if UB does 7CS H/L with 2-7 rules or not for the low which could be the issue. I'm pretty sure that (Crazy) Pineapple H/L is only A-5 for the low.
Hmmm, that could explain the discrepancy! I'll have to look into this further. Thanx.

Most low game do not count str8 and flushes so A2345 would be the nut low. If str8 and flushes count then usual it is specify as 2-7 low game. Most hi-lo split games have 8 or lower as qualifier but in for home games be careful and ask as in many home games I have play in, there is no qualifier. When you write O8, the 8 means 8 or lower for low.
