Aces are low in this game - it's deliberate. But given the constant feedback maybe I should just make them high ;-)


I think you're getting constant feedback on it because that's the way almost all versions of Poker are played.

Aces _can_ be low in the case of an A-1-2-3-4 straight, but they can almost always be high as well, and almost always beat K.

Having aces always be low/never be high is super uncommon (it may not even exist in Poker, but I can't say for certain).


If it's deliberate, how do you expect anyone to get a royal flush?
