7 Card Stud Hi-Lo & Razz Poker
February 19, 2010
7 card stud hilo and Razz poker are the least popular amongst the big 5 poker games. At the major rooms like Stars and Tilt though there are thousands of players at the Stud HL and Razz tables. These two games require a lot of skill, especially Razz poker. If you are interested in learning how to dominate the ring tables for these two games you will have to study. I have added some links below that will be helpful:
Most of us have experience playing 7 card Stud poker so you should at least know that basic format of these games. The objectives differ only slightly but that makes all the difference in the world. In Stud Hilo you want the highest hand and/or the lowest hand, just like in Omaha Hilo. To qualify for the low hand in Stud Hilo your hand must be 8 or less.
Razz poker on the other hand is a true lowball game. The player with the lowest hand wins. It doesn’t matter if I have quad Aces, if you have a Royal flush I will win. There is no requirement for the low and straights and flushes do not count.
