For a newbie, I loved Hellmuth's Razz chapter in Play Poker like the Pros. It gives you a nice grasp of the game right away.

I was playing a $1 trny on PStars yesterday with a guy who was so bad he was beyond terrible. Then he sits out, and comes back, does this a few times, I swear he was reading up on Razz while he was playing.

It was funny because he got a LOT better right away - I don't know where he finished but he had a nice stack when they moved me. Had to admire him.

Here's a site put together by a razz player with a lot of useful links and tips. There are other sources online for basic strategy but I haven't found them to be any better.

Is that really true? Razz has small pots and small edges
