Razz

Razz is basically 7-Card Stud played for low only. Flushes and straights do not matter (they won’t ruin your low) and Aces are always low.

A game of stud begins with the antes just like a regular 7-Card Stud

game. After the deal, the player with the highest upcard brings it in. (the deal consists of two cards face-down and one face-up).

The first betting round is followed by another upcard (fourth street), and this time the player with the lowest 2-card hand (made by his face-cards) begins the betting round.

5^th and 6^th streets go down the same way, both times players receive face-up cards. 7th street is another hole-card (the third). The last betting round is followed by showdown. The player with the lowest hand wins the pot.

The absolute best hand in Razz is A,2,3,4,5.
