The second one is the better low hand. The first one is a seven low and the second one is a six low.

Take each hand and compare them backwards...

65,432 is a lower number than 74,321. That's an easy way to figure it out.

Indeed Slick, that's a good way of figuring it out.

I have been busy with life... working a lot, spending time with my wife and daughter. I also disappear for a few months during hunting season here in NY.

I haven't had time to play a lot of poker and miss it. I'm slowly trying to get back into the swing of things.

It's good to hear from you and your wisdom!
