Ace high or low just means the highest and lowest straights you can have are A, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10, J, Q k, A right?... is around the corner allowed in holdem? going J, Q, K, A, 2 or even Q, K, A, 2, 3.. I don't think it is.. but i've seen some people try to play them

thanks for the help

you can only have a straight go to or from the ace, none of the "around the corner" crap is allowed. A2345 or 10JQKA. JQKA2 is not a valid straight.

I think WARP around straights are OK to use in space, not on earth.

Around the corner straights aren't used in standard poker. Once in a while somone will call a game where they are OK in a home game, but it's as tacky as deuces wild.
