okay, this is probably the easiest question in the world..... but I'm STUMPED..... and for the life of me can't figure this out.... what does the "E" in HORSE stand for?

H - Holdem

O - Omaha

R - Razz

S - Stud (7 card)

E - ????

I know we played 7 card stud hi/lo for the "E" in the last horse tourney I played... but I can't figure out what E stands for? lol

[allinking17]

seven card stud hi lo Eight or better

E stands for eight

EIGHT!!!!

means the low hand must be 8 high or worse, so A 2 3 4 9...is not a low

Straights or flushes dont count here at all either right? like on omaha hi lo i mean?

straights and flushes are good for the HI part of the game..... but unless they're cards 8 and lower they don't mean crap for the LO part......

straight flushes counts in omaha but in razz it doesnt count.

i like razz....... it's the badugi i don't like yet it's ALMOST the same

[herlis]

i play badugi liked it at first but becomes boring in the long run.

I believe in most Hi/Lo games, for the low portion of the hand, straights or flushes don't count. If you have the Wheel (A,2,3,4,5) you have a good hi and the Nut low in stud.
