Answer D is correct. The nut high here is K-J for an Ace-high straight (A-K-Q-J-T), and the nut low is 3-4 for an Eight low (8-4-3-2-A). Player C has the high and players A and B both have the low. However, player D has both the nut high and nut low. |

Answer B is correct. Hand B has the 2-3 combination for the nut low (7-6-3-2-A) and also contains the nut flush (A-K-9-7-2). Both Hand A and Hand C contain the nut low, but they are inferior to Hand B on the high side. |
