description 2-7 Double Draw Overview
2-7 Double Draw is a lowball draw-poker game in which the lowest five-card hand wins under deuce-to-seven rankings. Players receive two opportunities to replace cards, creating three betting rounds: one after the deal, one after the first draw, and one after the second. Aces are high, and straights and flushes count against the hand, so the ideal ordinary hand is an unsuited 7-5-4-3-2. It is intended for players familiar with draw poker and lowball hand comparison.
