Aim Low to Win Big!
Low Four is a unique new game that is fun and easy to learn!
How to Play
The player makes an initial Ante wager and may also make optional High Points or Low Points Bonus wagers. The player and dealer are each dealt seven cards face down. The player objective is to build a four-card hand containing the lowest possible point value and beat the dealer!
Ace: 1 point
2-10: face value
Jack, Queen, King: 10 points
Duplicates are only counted once! (2,2,3,5 = 10), (4,4,4,2 = 6), (5,5,5,5 = 5)
The player then decides whether to play or fold. If the player folds, cards are discarded face down to the right of the Ante and the Ante wager is collected. If the player plays, the player’s lowest four-card hand is placed face down in Play box and remaining cards are discarded. Player places a Play wager equal to the Ante on top of hand.
The optimal player strategy is to make the Play wager with all hands 15 points or lower.
How to Win
The dealer builds their best four-card hand with the lowest possible number of points. If dealer does not qualify with a 16-point hand or better, player receives even money on Ante wager and Play wager pushes. If dealer does qualify, the dealer and player hands are compared and the winning hand has the lowest number of points.
Player wins – even money is paid on Ante and Play
Dealer wins – Ante and Play are collected
Tie – Ante and Play push
