Low Mambo ( poker )
Mambo stud (A combination between stud and a widow game, in
which players use three cards in their hands plus one community
card, played high-low. Each player is dealt one down card and
one up card, followed by a round of betting, one more up card,
one more round of betting, and then a community card, with a
final round of betting. Players use any combination of three
of their four cards for high hand and any three for low. hand
rankings differ from "ordinary poker." The highest
ranking low hand, A -2 -3, is called a Low Mambo, and the highest
ranking high hand,
Q - K - A suited, is called a High Mambo. The remaining high
hands rank this way: straight flush, three of a kind, straight,
flush, one pair, highest card rank. There is a qualifier for
low: to win the low half, a hand must be 6-high or better. One
worse than a Low Mambo is A-2-4, and so on. If there is no low,
the entire pot goes to the high hand).
