What is a low hand in poker and how does it compare to other hands in the game?

In Poker, a low hand is a hand with the lowest possible ranking of cards. This is typically seen in games like Omaha Hi/Lo or Seven Card Stud Hi/Lo where players aim to make the lowest possible hand. A low hand is ranked based on the value of the cards, with the best low hand being A-2-3-4-5 (also known as a "wheel"). In comparison to other hands in the game, a low hand is considered weaker than high hands like straights, flushes, and full houses. In games that use both high and low hands, players aim to make the best combination of both to win the pot.
