Default Re: (razz) An observation about low limit razz

This is a quote from Ted Forrest who some consider to be one of the best Razz players anywhere:

"If you are a fundamentally sound player, you will be at a disadvantage to players who really understand Razz.... "

[/ QUOTE ]Just out of curiosity, could you tell me where this quote comes from ? I googled it, and the only results are directed to your post.

Sure - it's from the Full Tilt Strategy Guide Tournament Edition. I don't have a page number, just a lot of notes, but it's the very last thing in that chapter.

The Razz section is about 4 pages (OK maybe 8) but it's an interview type deal with Huck Seed and Ted Forrest. It's short but dense, it really helped my game. I think it said they both have two Razz bracelets a piece.

I also love the last part of what he said:

"Anybody playing basic strategy is going to get crushed by a good poker player. Razz is one of the purest forms of poker because the good players will make the money and the bad players will lose the money. It's a beautiful, beautiful form of poker."

Take that, Norman Chad!
