Definition

A game where the pot is split and awarded half to the best high hand and half to the best low hand. Sometimes, a low hand must "qualify" (e.g., 8-low or better), and if no hand at showdown qualifies, the full pot is awarded to the best high hand.

Example

Stud 8-or-better is a 7 card stud game where a player may win half the pot by showing down an 8-low or better that is the best low hand.
