One card to 6-high	.51/2 to 1 against

Two cards to any three cards under 7,
to make 7-high or better	271/2 to 1 against
One card to 8-high	2 to 1 against
One card to 9-high	Even

Comment: Seepage 61. The more players there are in the pot, the more low cards can be assumed to have been dealt originally and the worse the chances are for improvement. The same fact decreases the danger of pairing, but this does not alter the fact that the chances of improvement are lessened.
