How HiLo works

HiLo is a useful teaching game because the lobby can see how quickly a streak tempts players into one more choice. It rewards restraint more than dramatic bets.

1Step 1

Start with a small stake and decide how many correct calls count as a finished attempt.

Stop after a modest streak instead of pushing until the route breaks.
