razz razz
Yesterday,
jpmassar asked if anyone wanted to go see The Hulk.
prock replied, saying that he couldn't [because he was going to play in the $1500 Razz tournament."
I thought that there wasn't much point in paying $1500 to see someone else get mad, when you could just sit down at a Razz table and get mad yourself, when your A23 hits brick brick brick.
Honestly, I don't have anything against Razz -- it's not even my least favorite of the HORSE games. Still, it's one of the most fun forms of poker to make fun of. I didn't play in it since I wanted to take a break from my losing streak, but I did stop by to see how some friends were doing. In most tournaments, people who just got busted out are a little upset while people who are still in are still happy to be in it. However, I walked up to a group of guys with smiles on their faces who had just busted out of the razz tournament.
On the other hand, most people at the Razz tourney tables, even the ones with big stacks, seemed miserable, with their heads buried in their hands or shaking their heads muttering at their bad luck. I saw a guy get busted out of the Razz tournament and you could see a palpable look of relief come over him as he left the Razz area.
