So, I rip poon in Stud HL. My Stud is OK. My Razz is swingy, but when it's all said and done- bad.

I'm working on it by playing a lot of it on FTP and really concentrating, playing along with 1 or 2 lo limit HE game[s].

I decided to play a tournament and was just staying above water, but fairly dormant until:

I tried my hand at razz for awhile b/c I cashed in one of the those "play with furgeson" freerolls. Def a interesting game, theres so much info available about you opponents hand. Had a good run for awhile, but I'm pretty sure I was just getting lucky, so I quit while I was ahead.
