Low Chicago
Low Chicago:
The pot is split between the player with the best hand and
the player who has the LOWEST spade card face-down. The dealer who calls this
game needs to specify whether or not the Ace of Spades will be counted as the
lowest spade card, or whether it is the Two of Spades. This is a discrepancy
because the Ace is typically considered the highest card of the suit, but
nevertheless, it can be used to make a straight from Ace to five and is
therefore, a low card. When I call Low Chicago, I call the Ace of Spades as the
lowest possible spade card and not the two.
High Chicago:
The exact same rules apply except in this game, the pot is split between the
player with the best hand and the player who has the HIGHEST spade card
face-down.
