Bluffs2005 0 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 PLaying HORSE and rather new when it comes to Razz.How does A, 3, 4, 6, 7 beat A, 2, 4, 5, 8Is it because of the 8? So the cards in the middle mean nothing?Can anyone help with Hand Rankings?Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites
sennin 0 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Because A3467 is 7 low, as opposed to the other which is 8 low Link to post Share on other sites

Actuary 3 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 it's the opposite of which hand is highest ranked.that is the easieat way to remember. Link to post Share on other sites
JackArnal 0 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 The best tip I got when first learning these games was to make a number out of the hands, starting with the highest card. The lower number wins. So in this case you would have 76,431 < 85,421. Somewhat simplistic, but easy to use. Link to post Share on other sites
Suited_Up 2 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Read the hands backwards.7 always beats 8.If they were both 7, then you move to the next card, and so on until someone's is lower. Link to post Share on other sites

DrZoidberg 0 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Yeah but 77,431 > 85,421 (And somewhere a mathematician's head explodes)Wrong? 7743A < 8543A, any non pair hands beats a paired hand, kthksEDIT: Oh you mean 7743A is a higher ranked hand, gotcha, confusing Link to post Share on other sites

JackArnal 0 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Sorry. Apply only when hands are unpaired. Generally, folks new to the game don't get too confused when a pair is involved. Link to post Share on other sites

DrZoidberg 0 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Razz is such a trick, it doesn't even matter what you have as long as the other guy gets boned harder then you do. That being the case, me and my friend who frequent small HORSE tourney's decided that the best strategy is to just fold. Link to post Share on other sites

Factor in upcard information, and you can gain quite an edge over the typical donk. Link to post Share on other sites
