Hi low games

how can a player win hi hand with aces full of 2s and low with a2345 when yiu can only use 5 cards

In Hi/Lo, you have 4 pocket cards and 5 on the table. You do not have to use the same 2 pocket cards for both the Hi and the Lo.

For example, let’s say you have A235 as your pocket cards, and the board flops AA249.

You would use the A2 from your pocket to make the full house AAA22.

You can also use the 35 from your pocket to make the Lo straight A2345.

Hope this helps. Good luck and Good poker!
