The Deal
Each player is dealt four hole cards. Next, when making their hand, each player MUST use exactly two hole cards from their hand along with three board cards.
The Play
A player MUST use any two of their four hole cards to make their best low hand. All low cards must qualify (be ranked eight or lower). A card may be used high, as well as low. Example: A two of diamonds may be used to make a diamond flush, as well as fit into a low hand.
