Anyway, my Sklansky on Poker is on the way too so I still need to read that. The Theory of Poker is a terrific book to read though and has tons of great advice in it.

You know, I read both these books, and a ton of others when I started playing, (NLHE) but I had them from the library and SoP didn't have Razz, I guess. I might not have read it anyway back then.

I'm glad you're getting it, maybe we can discuss the concepts some as applied to Razz specifically. I know there is something coming up on how multiway pots are idiosyncratic in some way, I just haven't gotten there yet.

I also looked at the hands again and came to this conclusion which relates some to what you wrote: I am in too many hands because my hand is good. When the whole table is showing 8 or better in the door I say to myself, "well, someone has to win....." and then I'm gambling my money away.

Have you ever heard the saying: "Patience is genius?" I may have it inscribed above my screen.
