In order for anyone to qualify low, there must be at least three cards of differing ranks 8 or below 1️⃣ on the board. For example, a board of K-8-J-7-5 makes low possible (the best low hand would be A-2 , 1️⃣ followed by A-3 , 2-3 , etc.) A board of K-8-J-8-5 , however, cannot make any qualifying low (the best 1️⃣ low hand possible would be J-8-5-2-A , which does not qualify). Statistically, around 60% of the time a low hand 1️⃣ is possible.

Wraps [ edit ]
In poker, an out is any unseen card in the deck 1️⃣ that will give a player the best hand. A wrap is a straight draw with nine or more outs.[9] This 1️⃣ is called a wrap because the player’s hole cards are said to wrap-around the board cards. In Texas hold 'em, 1️⃣ where players have two hole cards, the greatest number of straight outs possible is eight; however, in Omaha, there are 1️⃣ four hole cards, which can result in straight draws which can have up to 20 outs. An example of a 1️⃣ twenty-out wrap is J♥ 10♠ 7♦ 6♣ on a flop of 9♥ 8♠ 2♦. To hit a straight, any of 1️⃣ the following cards is needed: 5♥ 5♠ 5♦ 5♣ 6♥ 6♠ 6♦ 7♥ 7♠ 7♣ 10♥ 10♦ 10♣ J♠ J♦ 1️⃣ J♣ Q♥ Q♠ Q♦ Q♣.
