What does Hi / Lo means?

Hi / Lo means that the pot will be divided between the highest hand and the lowest hand, when there is a qualifying low hand for this action. In low hand rankings, the individual value of each of the five cards must be unique.

The suits and sequences considered (colors and sequences) will not be considered when qualifying low hands, making them eligible to qualify as high and low hands at the same time. Aces, in addition to being the highest card in the high hand range, are used as the lowest card in the low hand range.
