John Juanda said I was the best Razz player on Full Tilt back in 2005. He was drunk at the time while we were playing 5/10 nlhe. But I still like to think he was telling the truth.
I once registered for a H.O.R.S.E. freeroll tournament online back in the day. When it came to Razz it was very interesting. I had no clue what I was doing other than knowing low cards are better than high cards. Thanks for the short explanation Daniel. I highly recommend jumping in a game that you have no clue about and dabble around a bit. It's great fun and you will learn more by sitting down and playing rather than reading anything about the game (although very helpful) lol.
sweet. Thnx. Glad you didn't say how horrible razz is. TJ C. freakin won a bracelet then proceeded to trash the game that gave him that bracelet. Thought it was bad form.
Ah, I never really looked into Razz odds so I always got aggressive when I knew I had the best hand at the moment. I probably was doing that as an underdog a lot.
Я английскую речь плохо понимаю урывками... Мне интересно у тебя на опыте диапазон карт заготовлен ты как машина хуяришь. Или уже со временем по наитию
Let's tweak the 2 hands to avoid any confusion with the Ace and with straights.... J5432 vs T9875 Which hand wins in 5 card stud high? That is easy. it is J5432 Jack high beats ten high. Ergo, in raze, the winning hand is the T9875 As Dnegs said, you count from the top. In this case J > T ergo T wins in razz. This is also how hands in a game like O8 are evaluated. 76543 beats 8432A, for example. Board KK432. A player with JJ76 has a better low than a player with A238.
Why not play stud games with blinds and keep position static, just like flop games. I think it would be better and clearly easier than dealing with antes and bring ins.
I am guessing that JA(2) is not a massive underdog to A2(6), so while you would never really want to create that spot, if you try a steal and get re-raised, your odds are good enough to continue. since you only have to cal the re-raise and the antes/bring in will mean you are getting about 6:1 to call, which has to be plenty. You probably just need to catch better than your opponent on 4th street to have lots of equity (40%+) and if he catches a J,Q, or K, you can even pass him.
It took this guy millions and years of being on tv to finally put that dead grass on his head he called “hair” on the app ‘let go’ and go get a hair transplant
raising with a J high board vs a betting 8 high board is a mistake. You will not get better to fold, there is no bluf that will bet/call on 5th street and any halfway decent 87 draw will bet/call which is a horrible result for us. In this example, a made 104 is always a calldown hand. Raising is not worse than folding though, so it's not the worst possible advice he could give, but it still sucks. And it's not even close.
You wont get value from 8s or 7s, 3s is the only hand that b/c here and is unlikely because of blockers. You also don't want to open yourself up to being reraised. Apart from the fact that you're not to happy to go to sixth with a made J low when you are up against a range showing strength. I have played Razz for years and ran many sims in my day. This is a calldown hand, I'm sorry. It's not even close. We can start raising clean 98s here. Maybe a perfect T8 as well.
You might not believe it, but there are more profitable ways of making a living than playing Razz. But yes, I've played the highest stakes Razz games on Pokerstars for years. Nowadays loads of Russians took over and the edges are just too small unless you're bumhunting.
The draw (or picture) behind with all the player looks really cool, can we get a closeup for us later? I feel like that you could start the video explaining that Razz is a game with x streets, with open cards etc etc... it took us some time to catch that... the strategy was really cool explained. Thanks for it.
Hey Daniel I am really liking this series wishing I was in a state I can play these for money. I was hoping you may hit triple draw at some point. Thanks again
Not if your opponent has higher 3 pairs, full house, quads. lol 3 pairs loses to king high, 2 pairs, lower three pair. You shouldn't be in the hand on river 3 pairs.
So what is the game where 1,2,3,4,6 is the nut low? I swear I played a game like that one time. Maybe that was Omaha HI/LO? Are there any other games where it's the low? Thanks from a fellow Canadian living in Japan with no easy access to poker (no casinos here) :( Ever coming to Japan Daniel? :)
+eBenykou I believe you are thinking of "2 to 7" wich is a lowball game where aces count for he highest card, and straights and flushes play. So the nuts would be 2 3 4 5 7 (offsuit).
What a crazy game! I love it, great video Daniel!!Keep this series going and talk about other kinds of games like pineapple or for the life of me...how the hell does high low work???!?=3
If you are just starting out in razz there is a point system you can learn that is really helpful. It takes into account ... Your 3 card hand How many duplicates of your 3 card hand are out How many cards to make your 8 low are out how many low cards are yet to act the calls, raises and re-raises
Can you please do a how to No limit. Like a series. Have maybe a beginner than make your way up. I love listening to you and your insight into card games
Not a fan of Razz. If someone shows high cards up you know for sure their hand is bad and it just kills the action, you can't even represent when you have two or three high cards showing. Whereas a harmless 2 shows on Stud you could have 2 2's in the hole. Just seems like too much definitive information is given to your opponent from the up cards
Nice of you to be the spokesperson for "everyone". You might wanna read through some of the other comments though. I'm guessing his videos are geared more towards popularizing poker, with some higher level strategy bits here and there, not about turning mediocre players into definite winners. You can always head to one of the few dozens sites that offer specifically "more sophisticated" stuff instead of looking it up on YT.
