People can't berate you unless they can tell what the hell is going on in your post.

The game of Razz is similar to the game of Stud High except that in Razz you are trying to make a low hand instead of a high hand. The OP believed that he was playing Razz so he thought his low hand was good. However, good razz hands tend to be bad Stud High hands, so his low hand was actually a bad hand. This led the OP to put in lots of monies way behind.

Plz offer a clearer, more understandable explanation as this makes my brain hurt

[jaminbird]

When he bet/called on 5th street I was so baffled that I thought "I wonder if he thinks this is 7 stud."

[hra146]

that has happened to like everybody and their momma who had a daddy whose brother played stud occasionally.
