Any Razzers?

[urbansprawler]

First poast in stud forum!

Anyone here play razz? I've been playing a bit on stars and the games are very good.

I do!!! Often I play it in mixed home games and have a huge edge. Its really a numbers game that I should play more of online I just don't know the BRM requirements. (Plus limit poker is annoying we play pot limit live)

50bbs is sort of okay, because of softness, up to 10/20 is pretty soft in the right spots, even short handed. That said, swings can get rough, so I would recommend 200bbs, really, but you can def be okay at 50bbs if you're good at it, and grind it up.

Never played PL Razz.

imo , you should have anywhere from 200-350bb for whatever stake your playing, and af ew of my good friends r very good razz regs. And just from watching them, the swings in razz could very well be huge.

I think you can afford less when you have a sick edge, + can move down, which you usually can. Also note that a multi tabler will generlaly be playing across stakes/sites anyway.

Do you guys think Raz or PL Omaha games are softer, assuming that I am coming from a purely no limit hold 'em background?

From my experience, I would say it depends on the poker network. On most networks razz usually has very low player numbers, the solid regs tend to go to the larger sites like pokerstars, so on the quieter sites the players are usually terrible.

Overall however, combining the popularity of omaha pl compared to razz, tabling selection in this poker form wins the debate, because you are always able to find weak players on almost any network provided that you table select well. Razz is definitely less swingy then omaha also as you can nit up fairly well and still get donks chasing too many draws.
