Stud For Low Razz
Razz is 7 card stud low, played with two to eight players. As in regular
7 card stud, every player is dealt a total of seven cards, three of them
face down, and the other four face up. The best low hand wins in razz.
To make your best five card low hand, using any combination of the seven
cards you are dealt. Aces are always low, and straights and flushes have
no effect on the low value of a hand. The lowest possible hand is A2345.
The basic structure of a seven card stud game is as follows.
1) Everyone antes (this is typically a 1/10th of a small bet).
2) Everyone gets three cards (2 down and one up)
3) There is a betting round, started by the bring in. The bring in is
the player with the lowest door card. The bring in bet makes a half or a
whole small bet.
4) All active players get another face up card (fourth street).
5) There is a round of betting.
6) All active players get another face up card (fifth street).
7) There is a round of betting.
8) All active players get another face up card (sixth street).
9) There is a round of betting.
10)All active players get one last face down card (the river).
11) There is one last round of betting.

The worst hand (based on high hand rankings but without straights or
flushes and aces are low) at showdown takes the pot. So A2345 is the
best Razz hand. There is no qualifier in Razz, so if my worst hand is
KQ654 and yours is KQJ32, your hand is higher than mine and I take the
pot.
Razz is a little awkward to learn, because although it follows the basic
structure of a seven card stud game, everything is upside down - pairing
cards and catching high cards are bad.
But, once you get used to it, it is easier to play than Stud. You have a
much better idea of how you opponent is doing. It's also great fun,
especially when you've been catching bricks (useless cards) all day.
