Razz

[Aces 'n Eights]

Razz is the mirror image of "standard" 7-stud. So to answer #1 it's dealt like stud. The object is to have the LOWEST possible hand with one caveat - straights and flushes DO NOT count against you, so the NUT hand is A,2,3,4,5. Again, since it's the mirror image the answer to #2 is the HIGH card brings in, but then the lowest hand starts the action.

And note that Aces are always low, so if you end up having to play a pair(poor you!) a pair of aces beats a pair of deuces, because they are lower, which means your hand as a whole is lower. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
