invulse 0 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 I was playing a 3.00 + .40 SNG Horse game on pokerstars last night, and it moved to razz, this was the first horse game I ever played so I was having trouble figuring out which game we were playing sometimes when they looked really similar, so after 8 or 9 hands of razz it switched to Stud H/L and I didnt realize it. Im dealt 2-3-AIm raising and raising thinking I have a great hand which I sortof do I guess for Stud...then i get the following 2-3-A-2-A-5 and my oppenent shows x-x-4-4-A, im thinking any card but a 2, 3, 5 or A makes me the best hand for sure in RAZZ..then on 7th street im delt a 3rd A making me no hand in RAZZ, but a great hand in Stud ( i think..i dont play stud lol). So I fold....and my opponent shows his hand to me....QUAD 4's, of course im thinking I just got bluffed badly, but then I look at the top of the screen and were playing Stud H/L instead of Razz, and I folded Aces Full to quads...Best screwup ever!

That's pretty rare, especially when you hold a 4 of your own. Link to post Share on other sites
joeythep 0 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Not to mention that, even if you were playing razz, as long as his other three cards didn't contain a pair, his pair of fours hand would still beat your pair of aces. Link to post Share on other sites
invulse 0 Posted August 23, 2006 Author Share Posted August 23, 2006 So this was a special deck that had five 4's?woops my mistake my hand was 2-3-A-2-A-5-A .... Im at work typing this as I do other thingsNot to mention that, even if you were playing razz, as long as his other three cards didn't contain a pair, his pair of fours hand would still beat your pair of aces.The point is that if 7th street had done anything but fill me up I would have had pretty much the best hand possible against what I saw.

NatureSon 0 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Actually, if you look at the original post, invulse doesn't say he has a 4. He clearly stated that he held a 5. Good thing I'm here to clear that up. Link to post Share on other sites

Good thing I'm here to clear that up. Actually when I first posted I did put a 5th 4 in because I was trying to remember if he had quad 4's or 5's since I was at work and accidently put 4's for both.

First of all, if you were playing HORSE, the game would switch from razz to stud, NOT hi/lo. Also, if the game was razz, you would be beat if you caught any high card, not just another pair. you do know that razz hands are judged by the high card, not the low ones, right? A4569 beats A235J, for example. Sounds like you need to stick to holdem. Good thing this wasn't a BB jackpot table. Link to post Share on other sites

(or better, betting out no matter what?)I didn't say that, of course I'm staying in, but the OP implied that he would basically have the nuts if he got any card that didn't pair him. I thought it was obvious he didn't know what beats what. Link to post Share on other sites
