How to play Hi-Lo

Hi-Lo is one card and one question: will the next card be higher or lower? Guess right and your win multiplies. Guess wrong and the round ends. The skill is in knowing which cards to bet on, which to skip, and when to take the money.

How a round works

1. Place your bet. A card is turned face up.
2. Choose Higher or Lower. Aces are high. If the next card is the same rank, you win either way.
3. A right guess multiplies your winnings. The harder the guess, the bigger the multiplier: calling Higher on a 3 pays little, calling Higher on a King pays a lot.
4. After your first right guess you can cash out at any time, or keep going.
5. Skip is free: if the card is a 7 or 8 and either call is a coin flip, skip it and get a new card without betting on it.

Which calls are safest?

Cashing out

Each extra guess multiplies what you have, but one wrong call loses the lot. A simple rule: set a target multiplier before the round, for example 3×, and cash out the moment you reach it. The temptation to go one more is the game; the discipline to stop is the strategy.

Tips

• Use the skip. There is no cost and it removes the worst decisions.
• Low cards and high cards are your friends; the middle of the deck is where rounds die.
• The card is drawn at random on the server each time. Streaks are just streaks.
