    Razz makes my head hurt!

    Ive been playin nl hold'em for years, but am brand new to razz. I read a lil bit on it before joining a Horse freeroll. I thought, from what I read, that basically the lowest/worst hand won. However, I ended up in a hand with one other player, and I had the lowest cards of us two, but still lost. someone please explain exactly what the best hand is in razz!

    I love HORSE, but razz is frustrating. A2345 is the best razz hand. Suits and straights don't matter. Conventional wisdom is to fold "pairs and paints (ie face cards)". I typically fold everything unless my highest card is a 6. It's just too frustrating. Play tight and wait for stud.

    I think the part you're missing is how the best/lowest hand is calculated. It doesn't start with the lowest card you hold (A), it starts with the highest card of your lowest 5 cards. Therefore 8-6-5-3-A (lose) is a worse hand then 7-6-5-3-2 (win) because the 7 is lower than the 8.

    Lol, that's me you're taking advantage of!! I'm always multi-tabling and never notice when it switches. I wish there were HORSE tourneys in the day. The ones I know are in the am.
