Playing Pineapple poker high-low seems to be a lot like playing Omaha high-low, but the similarities are deceptive when you remember that you need only use one (or none) of your remaining hole cards to form your low hand after the river has been dealt. Here is the strategy we recommend for deciding which hole card sets to play in Pineapple high-low:

✦ Always throw away three of a kind.

✦ In early position, raise any three card set that contains an Ace and two other cards ranked Five or below, where one of the cards shares a suit with the Ace. You should also play any A2 (regardless of kicker), any A3, where either the Three is suited with the Ace, or you have a kicker ranked Ten or higher that is suited with the Ace, any pair of Jacks or higher, and three cards ranked above a Ten, where two of the cards are suited.

✦ In middle position, you may also call with any A2 or A3, any A4, where either the Four or your kicker is suited with the Ace, any A5, where either the Five or a kicker that is a Ten or higher is suited with the Ace, any three cards ranked Five or below with an Ace, any pair of Eights or higher, and any three cards ranked above a Ten. If someone raises in front of you, you should only play hands you would play in early position.

✦ In late position or in the blinds, you may also call with any pair of Fives or higher and any Ace-high flush draw. If someone raises in front of you, only play hands you would play in early position, unless you are one of the blinds, in which case you may also play hands that you would play in middle position.
