В стандартном лоуболле (называемом также Калифорнийский лоуболл) преимущество имеют младшие карты. Лучшей считается система А,2,3,4,5; за ней следует А,2,3,4,6; потом А,2,3,5,6 - и так далее. Зачастую используется джокер в качестве любой (wild) карты. В разновидности лоуболла «два-семь» (deuce-to-seven) лучшей рукой считается 2,3,4,5,7.
Каждый игрок получает пять карт втемную. Состоится круг торговли, начиная с игрока слева от дилера. Обычно правила требуют, чтобы этот игрок делал вынужденную ставку (блайнд).
После этого круга игроки могут менять до пяти карт. По завершении обмена проводится финальный круг торговли. Обычно правила торговли требуют, чтобы после обмена у ставящего была хотя бы система от 7-ки или ниже (что соответственно еще лучше).
Самая младшая система при вскрытии выигрывает банк. В стандартном лоуболле стриты и флеши игнорируются. Однако, в варианте «два-семь» они считаются и поэтому не сойдут за малую систему. В стандартном лоуболле туз -низшая карта, в варианте «два-семь» он выше всех. В другой вариации лоуболла лучшей считается рука А,2,3,4,6; стриты и флеши в ней считаются высокими комбинациями.
При обсуждении лоуболла автор всегда имеет в виду стандартный или Калифорнийский лоуболл.
PA33 (RAZZ)
Разз - это стад-лоуболл на семи картах, лучшая комбинация в нем А,2,3,4,5. Стриты и флеши игнорируются.
Каждому игроку сдается по две карты втемную и одна в светлую. Обычно обладатель высшей открытой карты (за исключением туза, который считается младшим) начинает торговлю. Четвертая карта сдается в открытую, и тут производится круг торговли, начинает который обладатель лучшей нижней комбинации на двух картах в светлую. Пятая и шестая карты сдаются в светлую, после каждой из них следует круг торговли, начиная с лучшей нижней системы на открытых картах. Седьмая и последняя карта сдается втемную, за ней следует финальный круг торговли. При вскрытии выигрывает лучшая нижняя система.
ХАЙ-ЛОУ СПЛИТ (HIGH-LOW SPLIT)
Это название охватывает несколько популярных видов покера. Сюда могут входить пятикарточный покер с обменом, пятикарточный либо семикарточный стад-покер. При вскрытии самая младшая и старшая комбинации делят банк. Иногда, однако, правила требуют, чтобы игроки объявили - синхронно или последовательно, - будут ли они собирать высшую, низшую или обе эти комбинации.
В пятикарточном хай-лоу сплите лучшая нижняя рука - это всегда А,2,3,4,5, как в лоуболле с обменом. В семикарточном стад-варианте хай-лоу сплита лучшей нижней рукой иногда считается А,2,3,4,6; стриты и флеши считаются высокими комбинациями. Туз всегда считается как низшей, так и высшей картой. (Следовательно, два туза могут быть как высшей, так и низшей парой.) В стад-вариантах хай-лоу сплита обладатель старшей комбинации на открытых картах обычно начинает каждый круг торговли.
В одной из разновидностей хай-лоу сплита за нижнюю считается только система от 8 и ниже. Если ни у кого нет таковой, лучшая старшая рука забирает банк.

[2] Принять ставку на флопе может быть неверной тактикой, но подъём на полублефе бывает очень неплох. Иногда выйти из игры лучше, чем принять ставку, но лучше всего поднять ставку. Подробнее об этом в главах 11 и 13.
[3] Точно эта величина составляет 10/47 х 9/46. Десять из 47 невидимых карт образуют флеш на четвёртой карте, и тогда девять из 46 оставшихся карт дают флеш в конце.
[4] Математически подъём на полублефе всё равно будет выгодной игрой, если оппонент сбросится более 4 раз из 19.
[5] Такая ситуация возникает, когда вы только уравниваете поднимавшего. Часто лучшим ходом является дальнейший подъём ставки.
