Razz is probably the most mind straining game out there. Its a compeltely different level of thinking. As oppose to hi/lo games, this is completely lo, and much harder to learn and master.

Most keep away from this game, but after you get the hang of it, it just another game of poker. You won't find many at the Razz table, but if your planning to play some Horse games, you better now some Razz......

I was saying the same as jepulator because it's really important!

Hmm... razz sounds interesting, might have to give it a whirl sometime. I've tried to play Omaha before and failed miserably, being a Hold'em player at heart but razz sounds a bit eaier to pick up. The bit in omaha that knackers me is the two from hole and three from the board, I forget that every damn time

The lowest hand wins the pot. The format is similar to seven-card stud high, except the high card (aces are low) is required to make the forced bet on the first round, and the low hand acts first on all subsequent rounds. Straights and flushes have no ranking, so the best possible hand is 5-4-3-2-A (a wheel). An open pair does not affect the betting limit.
Razz poker Rules
1. All seven-card stud rules apply in razz except as otherwise noted.
2. The lowest hand wins the pot. Aces are low, and straights and flushes have no effect on the low value of a hand. The best possible hand is 5-4-3-2-A.
3. The highest card by suit starts the action with a forced bet. The low hand acts first on all subsequent rounds. If the low hand is tied, the first player clockwise from the dealer starts the action.
4. Fixed-limit games use the lower limit on third and fourth streets and the upper limit on subsequent streets. An open pair does not affect the limit.
5. The dealer announces all pairs the first time they occur, except pairs of facecards, which are never announced.
