The Poker Olympics II - RAZZ

I have to admit that before this morning all I knew about RAZZ was that you were supposed to play it when you had got some Red Wine and Cheese! I registered for the PokerPlasm – Poker Olympics – RAZZ more for the one point you get for entering and the fun you have playing than out of any expectation of placing. Once again I have to thank PokerPlasm for the helpful guide on how to play RAZZ (for those of you who don’t know it is basically like seven card stud but instead of a high hand you are trying to get a low one. Straights and Flushes don’t count and Aces are low).

I have been getting a run of rotten cards for the last week or so and I was expecting that to continue. It did. Fortunately in RAZZ 2 3 5 off suit is a pretty good starting hand and I was able to capitalise on my cards. Modesty forbids me to tell you where I finished but the Gold medal and accompanying seven points really helps my bid to get to the Tournament of Champions in June and the prize money helps to make up for bad run in ring games of late!

I am a little worried about the next event in the series as it is Omaha Hi/Lo. This will be the first time I have entered an Olympic event in a game that I have played before (see Omaha he’s making eyes at me) and I think the extra pressure that this brings may adversely affect my game!

Finally I would like to thank Zonetrap for arranging the events (great job man) and to AJDragonfly and Mrs Jester for their support during the match. The esprit de corps in the UK camp was great to see – and it put our American cousins to shame as they splintered and turned on each other early in the game! What fun!

Stay lucky!
