The term is for when you have a split pot for the best high hand and best low hand. With 8 or better, the qualifier for the low is five non paired cards that are 8 or lower. Some games do not allow flushes or straights to qualify for low, but with Stud/8 and Ohmaha/8, same suit or consecutive cards usually don't matter.

I'm sure someone else can explain it a little better than me. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
