description Badeucy Overview

Badeucy is a split-pot poker variant combining elements of Badugi and 2-7 Lowball. Typically played as a single-draw game in mixed-game rotations, the pot is divided between the best Badugi hand and the best 2-7 low hand. Players must develop strategies to compete for both halves of the pot simultaneously, making it more challenging than playing either game alone. The name is a portmanteau of 'Badugi' and 'Deucy' (referring to the 2-7 lowball component).

help Badeucy FAQ

What poker games are combined in Badeucy?

Badeucy combines Badugi with 2-7 Lowball. It is normally a single-draw split-pot game, so players compete for both a four-card Badugi hand and a five-card 2-7 low.

How is the pot divided in Badeucy?

One half goes to the best Badugi hand and the other half goes to the best 2-7 lowball hand. A player can win both halves by making the strongest hand in each format.

How many cards does each player receive in Badeucy?

Players receive four cards for the Badugi side of the hand. The same cards are evaluated as a 2-7 low, with the draw structure and hand rankings determined by the game rules.

What makes the low hand difficult in Badeucy?

The 2-7 low must use five distinct cards, avoid straights and flushes, and treat the ace as high. That is different from Badugi, where the goal is a four-card hand with different suits and ranks.
