Default Re: How does a kid learn to play razz?

I am interested in learning to play razz and would like to find good reading material about the game. Any suggestions?

"Sklansky on Poker" has the definitive chapter on limit razz.

For pot-limit razz (also called London Lowball), check out "Pot-Limit No-Limit Poker" by Bob Ciaffone and Stewart Reuben.

And if you're looking for people to play that against I suggest playing against yourself and roleplaying one of the players as a guy who like to play blind, because that's your best shot at finding a game.

I only know of one London Lowball game in the entire world: the big game in the Victoria Club in London. It has a 1000 British pound buy in, and alternates between pot-limit London Lowball and pot-limit Omaha high.

That said, no-limit and pot-limit games of all types are far more common than they were even three years ago, both online and B&M, so I wouldn't be suprised if this game pops up somewhere. A lot of the smaller online sites go out of their way to offer games that no other sites have.
