A 2 3 4 5 doesn't count as a straight in Poker

I was playing poker in the casino and I got a A 2 3 4 5, which should count as a straight. It said I had high card and didn’t win the hand.

A isn’t 1
and can’t be like J Q K A 2

In Tower Unite, aces are always high.
10|J|Q|K|A, for instance, would be a valid straight.
Q|K|A|2|3, however, would not be.

this is a standard poker type, so it is not just in Tower Unite.

In normal holdem poker it is possible to use the ace as a 1. Its called a “wheel”. You are correct that you cant do a J Q K A 2 though.

Why would it be called “Texas Holdem” then, when it’s not actually texas holdem?

And how come there isn’t any small or big blinds? Everyone is forced to go in at min bet.
There is a lot of things that make this different from normal texas holdem
