Single
Pots Versus Split Pots
Seven-card stud, hold'em,
and Omaha high have a single pot that's divided only in
cases of a tie for best hand. In split-pot games like Omaha/8
or 7-stud/8, the best high hand and the best qualifying
low hand divide the spoils, provided someone makes a low
hand. Five unpaired cards, all with a rank of eight or lower,
comprise a low hand. While there's always a high hand in
split-pot games, there isn't necessarily a low hand. When
there's no qualifying low at showdown, the high hand "scoops"
- it wins the entire pot.
