  1. There is one variation I've heard of that counts it, but in general, no.


  2. nope

  3. No.

  4. No sorry.  Can't cross the ace.  Up to or up from.

  5. No.

    There is no such thing as a wrap around straight.  In a straight the ace is either the highest card or the lowest card:

    T J Q K A

    OR

    A 2 3 4 5

    There are no other straight possibilities for an ace in regular poker.

  6. I'm pretty sure it doesn't count as a straight.  I know some who play 500 rummy that way.   But, in poker, it is an "Ace-high hand," nothing else.
