Do I think razz is the most profitable game... probably not.
There is alot of luck in razz and often it takes a while for the mathematical expectation to shine through sometimes. A nitwit is more likely to have a winning session on razz than in most games. The beauty of razz is that drawing past points they should in a hand can often be too tempting for the loose gamblers. There is very little 'style' in razz as the plays are very limited.

The "beauty" of razz is that very few people actually understand it, how profitable it can be (on a per table basis) even at very high limits, how low you can keep the variance (i.e. luck), and how many plays you can make that every other player at your table hasn't already read about in 4 different books and a couple of video training sites. This point is proven over and over by posts like this.
