Default Re: razz short handed/final table tourney

was the 2 your door? was this a steal? if you think you will pick up the pot most of the time then yea, this is the time to go. however, if this table has been going to showdown alot, then you might want to wait...

its alot easier to bounce back from having few chips in stud than hold'em MTTs, because of the antes. I dont mean your $6000 here, but if you antes yourself right down to like <$2000, now when you finally get the 3-wheel and win the pot, theres a big overlay. You might quadruple-up but only have to beat 1 villain. This principle gets amplified the shorter-stacked you are (and 8 handed would be even better, but it still makes big difference 5handed).

So, just to say, its probably okay to ante yourself down a bit further, maybe even all the way to 1 ante(!) if you dont get a good hand. Maybe someone will bust before you, but most important is to WIN your all-in hand. It'll still be a pretty big pot even if you are much shorter stacked than $6000.

For your specific question of is T92 better than Q26 or J37, i dont know, but you'd get an idea from twodimes.net, or ask the stud players in the stud forum about stud hands. you'll find more razz players there, and likely better ones too [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
