    Is it better to have a Badugi that includes a pair (eg: As3c5d5h) over having a hand where you have 2 of the same suit where your hand is reduced to 3 cards (eg: As3c5h7h)?

    in your example both players have a 53A low and would split the pot

    pairs in badugi r terr! the A357 hand is by far the better and winnin hand of the 2!

    str8s are better than paired low hands! and suited str8s r better than ne low str8 casue its suited!

    this.Pairs and same suits are just taken out and do not count towards the rank. In this case, they both have 3 card hands.... and obv 4 card hands that meet reqs are better than 3 card hands.
