Description:
A-5 Single Draw Poker is a variant of draw poker where players aim to make the lowest possible five-card hand after a single drawing round.
Gameplay
Here's a brief overview of how A-5 Single Draw Poker is played:
- Each player is dealt five cards face down.
- There is a single drawing round where players can discard up to three cards and draw new ones to improve their hand.
- After the drawing round, there is a final betting round.
- At the showdown, players reveal their hands, and the player with the lowest hand wins the pot.
Hand Rankings
In A-5 Single Draw Poker, the hand rankings are based on making the lowest possible five-card hand:
- 5-4-3-2-A (also known as a "wheel") is the best possible hand.
- Flushes and straights do not count against the player for low, so the best low hand is A-2-3-4-5, and the worst possible hand is 7-6-5-4-3.
Conclusion
A-5 Single Draw Poker offers a strategic twist on traditional draw poker, focusing on making the lowest hand possible after a single draw. Enjoy the challenge of crafting your hand and outwitting your opponents!
