Wheel

In depth

The Wheel is the lowest possible straight in poker, consisting of the cards A-2-3-4-5. In this combination, the Ace acts as the lowest card, forming a straight that ranks below all other straights (e.g., 2-3-4-5-6 and higher). It is a distinct hand that qualifies as a straight while occupying the bottom position in the straight hierarchy.
