Yesterday I played in my first 2023 WSOP tournament. I chose to play in an Omaha Hi-Lo Limit game. In Omaha Hi-Lo, you must use exactly two cards in your hand combined with three cards on the board. The highest five-card hand splits the pot with the lowest five-card hand, but the lowest hand has to have all cards 8 or less (where A is counted as a 1). If there is no such combination, then the highest hand wins the entire pot. For example, the hand on the right has the lowest possible hand, A2358. The hand on the left has a king-high flush.
