Razz

I think everyone has a love/hate relationship with Razz. I personally love it, it is such a sick and twisted game, as your A 2 3 can quickly become A 2 3 K K J 9...etc. lol. Today I won two out of four$2 sit n gos, came in 13th on a WSOP freeroll (out of 225 players) and while I was playing that I won a $1 razz tourney. First hand was pretty crazy as I would have eliminated two players had the blinds been big enough. It seems they didn't know exactly how to play razz as they both kept re-raising with high cards and pairs. Fine by me! That gave me a good start to the game. When it gets down to 3 players, and heads up, it becomes a game of chicken. Who can complete the bet first with a low card but K Q underneath? The last hand was pretty crazy as he kept reraising me with nothing and his cards were awful, I didn't have much better A 9 A, but I got the better cards as the hand finished and I won with a 10, 9, 6, 4, A and they had a J, 10, 8, 5, 4. Whoo hoo $4 dollars baby lol. I'm happy to take it, I was down to $20 in my account because I was playing tired, etc, and since I've focused on my game I've now moved up to $70. I'll post some hand analysis later. I just want to add that the freerolls are such crap shoots as you have to go all in all the time. I did quadruple up with pocket 4s when the board made runner runner straight. But that wasn't enough and I had ten big blinds and went all in with J 3 sooted. I targeted the med stack and they had a K and I was gone. Que sera.
