When he calls your reraise on 3rd you have to assume he has 2 baby cards in the hole.

I would call 4th and fold 5th.
You got lucky with runner runner cards on 6th and 7th

Why did you raise 4th street? Pairs are bad.

On 5th you're probably drawing almost dead, so I can't see calling.

Gah I don't know what I was really thinking. I guess I thought since he had 97 showing and I had a pair he was just playing at me. I should have def folded on 5th.

Razz is a fun game, I personally suck at it...

DO you know of any decent Razz guides online ?

Not off hand but i remember reading a bunch on it, ill see what i can find and get back to you. I love all versions of stud (razz being stud lo). Stud has become my favourite game.

the raises on 4th are ugly, and definitely fold after picking up the Q on 5th...

you have to think your hands through in games like razz, 8/b
take your ego out of the equation and judge the situation dispassionately

Seat 6: sos41 is sitting out
Seat 7: jishuu showed [Th 5s 9h 4h Kd 4c 3c] and won ($33.50) with T,9,5,4,3

Cliff Notes: 9 high bring in 6 handed. Two folds and 8 completes to $2 with me showing 9 and bring in showing 9.

Now I know this guy will do this with two kings in the hole. Stealing dead completions is a good way to profit. I have two lows in the hole, I don't put the completor on anything, his range is 23-KK.

fourth street delivers him a K and i a 4. Now i know im ahead. When you are ahead in razz.. bet. 5th street is a fun card

Gives me 3459K, vil xx37K. So if both his holes are lower than a 9, i am behind. I don't really know. This is a good time to just call a bet since i had been just dealt the K and vil will ALWAYS bet this since the K is a usual hand killer.

6th.. he pairs with another K and I pair my 4. Im a razz noob so i figure this doesn't change much. i guess a paired four is better than a paired king. We only have 1 card to go, and I still don't know what his holes are. if they are both lower than 9 i am behind. So i check intending to call. River a T and I check again with the intention of calling, no value in betting really.

how was my thinking?

3rd: Your call to a raise here is pretty bad, while villian may not have much your hand is not great, especially since the 9 is showing
4th is OK, once you called 5th you had to call it down considering his cards
