Razz i played for the first time the other day and actually i really like it although its really hard at first because you have to take everything you no about poker and throw it out the window lol cuz the worst hand is the best hand and aces are low... so the nuts in razz is ace 2 3 4 5 because straights and flushs dont count in razz either lol
I can just see the people who started razz... all drunk out of their minds... lets play omahah hi but the worst hand is the best hand!!! lol something me and my buddies would do

LOL, I just got confused with that and if i play it i think it's just going to ruin my game. It's a pretty complicated game type and only those who know all of that can win it.

Ok this is it.
H - Holdem O - Omaha Hi R - Razz S - Stud Hi E - Stud Hi/Lo
No Omaha Hi/lo and all games are limit games.
Watch out for Stud games changes, you get dealt cards in same manner, only game is different. All of you who will try to play ring game HORSE at FTP, games are changed based on time not rounds.

H hold em O omaha R razz S stud E stud hi/lo or stud 8 or better
everyone knows hold em and omaha, razz is lowest 5 cards so A2345 is nuts low hand starts at highest used low card e.g if u have A 3 4 8 2 9 10 your hand is 8 4 3 2 A if some one has 7 4 3 2 A they win with a 7 low to your 8 low. straights and flushes dont count if u get a pair u can use only 1 of the pair e.g. 3485933 your hand is 98543 not 54333.
stud is a little easier best 5 cards win straights and flushes do count
stud 8 is a combination of razz and stud so u can win with either high or low hands.
i suggest playing in freerolls or play money before u put any of your own money in.
------------ and in stud 8 the low hand has to be 8 or lower hence the name stud 8
.............?????????
