What is the Low?
An argument had broken out on a board reading 2♥A♣K♣4♥5♣ as to who had the best low in a heads up pot.
Fabrizio Gonzalez: J♥6♦6♠3♠
Robert Yass: A♦Q♥A♠6♣
Yass and several table mates tried to convince Gonzalez that Yass had the best low with a live six for half the pot.
Gonzalez almost consented to the table's decision but lucky for him, Robert Mizrachi had just been moved to the table so he explained that the three in Gonzalez's hand made him a better qualifying low, as he was also able to play down to the ace.
The floor was called over to confirm the low and the dealer pipped the cards before the wrong side of the table finally agreed they had been mistaken.
Gonzalez scooped as he had a six-high straight to take the high half of the pot as well.
