The first minigame, high or low, involves guessing the value of a suite of cards. The dealer presents one card, and you must decide whether the next card is higher and lower. Consider this a crash course in mathematical probability, an essential skill in poker. When playing this game, analyze each of your chances with care. The higher the value of the card, the likelier it is that the next one is of a lower value and vice versa. A two will always be followed by a higher card, while an ace will follow a lower one. The cards already dealt will also affect probability. With a little practice, you will do well in this game.
