After seeing it last year, I have to say that watching Razz is like smoking crack.

Dude, playing Razz is bad... I just can't imagine WATCHING razz.

Stupid donk fest got so tight when we played Razz. I had to pay the whole tables way to 4th street to even get some action and even then the left side of the table still folded.

I want to know when ESPN is going to scrap the whole idea of the WSOP and just start airing packages titled "WORLD'S GREATEST SUCKOUTS" and "ALL-INS GONE WILD" and "HOTTEST HOLD 'EM HANDS" and such. Just show every hand where one player makes a massive suckout, or every preflop all in where fortunes turn wildly at each card.

I mean, give 'em what they want, right? Forget poker, let's just titillate the audiences with HOT GAMBLING ACTION.

I blame copious amounts of free alcohol.

Sadly, "free" alcohol isn't.

Actually, I have to admit, we all stood there for like 3 minutes trying to figure out wtf was going on. I was beyond wasted at that point too. Seeing it now, I'm trying to figure out what kind of crack me and PJN smoked before the event.

Watching Razz is worse than watching paint dry.

Of course, people just SAY they like watching Razz because it sounds like the RIGHT thing to say amongst a forum of poker diehards.

I'd MUCH rather see the NL Deuce to Seven event.

I haven't seens any duece to seven played so I can't comment on it. What I find most interesting about watching Razz is seeing the equity percentages see-saw with every card. I do think it's an interesting game.

Why don't they just tape the final table of WSOP Me, and repeat it ad nauseam. Same ratings.
