| In our game at work, one guys thought while playing Texas Hold'em, that the higher straight starts with an ace. Say one guy has a straight, 56789, and the next guys has a straight 12345, what is the winning hand. | ||

| Ace can be considered low. A2345 (wheel) is a five high straight that doesn't beat a 56789 straight. That fucked me up when I first started. | ||

| teh one with the 9. The ace can be used for a low and a high straight but when used for the low you have a 5 high straight. | ||
