I was puzzled by the statement in the section on 'Flushes' that "Under ace-to-five low rules, flushes are not possible". Whether an ace counts as high or low makes no difference to it's suit, e.g. hearts or spades, so why doesn't a hand like 10, 7, 6, 3 and Ace of hearts count as a flush? On looking at the article on ace-to-five low games, it seems that there is just a separate rule in those games that flushes don't score with any particular value. So it is not that a flush is not possible , just that it doesn't count as higher than any other hand. If this is correct someone might try and clarify this section.2A00:23C8:7907:4B01:492A:659B:43BD:CE61 (talk) 15:18, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
In ace-to-five low, hands that would otherwise be flushes do score with a particular value: they score as high-card hands. Thus, flushes are not possible in any meaningful sense. Hpesoj00 (talk) 16:41, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
