For those of you who are not familiar with Razz know that is similar to Seven Card Stud, the difference is that in Razz wins the low hand, straights and flushes do not count but the pairs are bad cards, aces are always considered instead low cards. The hand is called Five-high or wheel (A-2-3-4-5 Remember that the scales do not apply in this game) is the worst hand, so the best that exists in this game.

Starting hands:

It ‘important starting small with 3 cards in hand, you should not play if you have a card top eight, but there are two exceptions to this rule:

1 You have a nine like paper discovery, all others have a card of nine major discovery, and also have two low cards face down. In this case you have the better hand than others.
2 You are well positioned to steal the pot with a small paper discovery and the player is left (or two left) has a high card discovery in this case, often you can raise the ante in order to steal regardless of your hole cards. If someone calls your bet you hope that your next card is high and your low, otherwise you have to lay off the plate, there is no reason to continue the bluff.

Remember cards:

Your cards are they dead?
Here this is another important thing to know in Razz.
What I mean by card dead?
A dead card is a card that has none other than equal in the deck. Do you know if your cards are dead because you’ve seen already in the cards out of the opponent, to remember what cards have come out and what not is very important because you have the option of knowing how many cards can hurt you and how much they make you improve your point. For example: your first three cards are 2-5-8 and there are 7 other players in the pot, their cards face are 2,5,8,8,2,7, J, remember that couples are not good thing in the race, but fortunately many of the cards that you would close a couple are already in the hands of your opponents. Now suppose your opponent has a 7-3-A in this case he needs a lot of cards that have already been published (carte death) to close the point. Unlike cards that you need to close the points are still available in this situation six favorite little more than 56% on your opponent. Remembering the cards you can make your own decisions and make them more accurate about the real possibility that you have to win the pot at all times.
