Otherwise known as the Dacey (our ill-mannered, short-tempered news editor). Actually, to all intents and purposes, the game may as well be called 7-Card Stud Lowball, as that’s essentially what it is. The rules and betting are the same as 7-Card Stud (links at the bottom of this article) except the lowest hand wins.

So in this game Aces are low and straights and flushes don’t count. And the only difference with the betting is that after the starting hands are dealt the high card places the forced bet, with the low hand betting first on subsequent rounds.

As with 7-Card Stud, the betting is at the lower limit for Third and Fourth Streets and upper limit for subsequent rounds.
