Sklansky on Razz
Hi,
Just clicking through a few links on Amazon, I came across a page for this book. Apparently the book's not available, but there was a picture of the cover - it looked pretty old and battered. Is this an old 2+2 publication? Is it still in print? What's the story? |

Re: Sklansky on Razz
I'm not sure about who originally published it. It has been incorporated into Sklansky on Poker which is a current 2 + 2 book.

I think that's Doyles's old copy.

Its one of his best books, no joke. You will crush Razz games, its very easy to read and comprehend the concepts.

Re: Sklansky on Razz
I always find it confusing when people claim that you will crush a certain game after heaving read a specific book. What if the other guys read it also? I mean who is so stupid to play for a significant amount of money without having read it?
Overall I'd say it's the minimum requirement to read this book before you sit down on a Razz table. |

[/ QUOTE ] Is there really such a thing a "sitting down at a Razz table"? Almost all Razz hands in B&M games are played as part of a mix, except for the lone WSOP event. It is highly likely that most players playing in a mixed game have never read a book on Razz, because "Sklansky on Poker" is basically the only book on Razz, and it is pretty obscure. Reading this book (or even just the Razz chapter of Hellmuth's book) will indeed give you a huge advantage during Razz hands against most mixed game players. |
