Razz (poker)

Razz is a poker variant. It involves Seven Card Stud Lowball, ie, that the worst hand wins. Here, the ace is the lowest card; Straights and flushes do not count as such.

Expiration of a hand

  • All players place the ante.
  • Each player is dealt two hidden (only known to him ) and one card face up.
  • The player with the highest card is called the bring-in. If two players have the same high card is decided by color (Spades is the highest, it followed, in descending order of precedence: hearts, diamonds, and clubs).
  • This is the beginning of the first round of betting.
  • Each player is dealt one card face up ( Fourth Street ).
  • Next round of betting. The player with the lowest face combination begins.
  • Each player is dealt one card face up ( Fifth Street ).
  • Third betting round. The player with the lowest face combination begins.
  • Each player is dealt one card face up ( Sixth Street ).
  • Fourth betting round. The player with the lowest face combination begins.
  • Each player is dealt a card face down ( seventh street or River).
  • Fifth and Final round of betting. The player with the lowest face combination begins.
  • Showdown.

Showdown

The player with the lowest five- card hand wins the pot, while straights and flushes are ignored and the Ace is as already mentioned the lowest card. The best hand is therefore Ace, 2,3,4,5. Since the rating of the hands are otherwise prepared by the general rules of poker, 8 high in any case worse (which is Lowball means that the hand loses ) and 7 high, regardless of whether the other cards are lower. A, 2,3,4,8 thus loses against 3,4,5,6,7.
