This is one of the wild card games we play at our Thursday night Oak Point poker game ( see Wild Card Poker: Hot Potato, Low ball, high in the hole wild and Wild Card Poker: Killer 55 for others).

This is just a variation on "Jacks to open, trips to win". When there is a winner (when someone has trips or better), the low hand (A-2-3-4-6 not suited being the best low hand) splits the pot with the winner.

This makes the game more interesting and can keep people in when they might otherwise fold on a raise. It also can bring raises from great low hands if they think someone does have trips or better.

A variation would be to allow a perfect low (A-2-3-4-6, not suited) to open and win half the pot, sharing with the best high at that point (trips or not). The other players can't tell if you are betting on a high hand or a low hand.
