Double Nuts ( poker )
In any high-low game, having both the best possible low and
high. In a community card game,
this means the best possible based on the cards showing. For
example, in Omaha,
with 3-4-5-K-Q of mixed suits (no three cards of the same suit)
on the board, the nut low would be A-2 and the nut high 6-7,
so a player having A-2-6-7 would have nut-nut. With A-2-3-3-K
on the board, a player holding nut-nut would have 3-3-4-5, four
treys for high and a wheel for low.
The term is also sometimes more loosely used for hands that
are nut low, near-nut (but obviously unbeaten) high.
