Razz

Razz is simply unlike any other game as your objective is to get the worst possible hand. If it could be likened to any game it would be Seven Card Stud in reverse or Seven Card Lo - your worst hand wins. Straights and flushes do not count against the low, but pairs do, and unlike other high/low split games, you do not need a qualifying hand for low, you just have to have the lowest possible hand on the table to win the pot.

is the lowest possible hand. The suits are irrelevant. Read more

Seven-Card Stud Hi-Lo - Also known as Seven Card Stud 8

The same rules as standard Seven Card Stud up until the showdown. Then the pot is then split equally between the best high hand, and the best qualifying low hand. If there is no qualifying low hand, the high hand wins the entire pot.

Straights and flushes do not count against the low hand, but pairs do. To qualify, no card from the low hand may be above an 8. Read more

Seven-Card Stud

A game of information and mis-information. Stud games are games in which players get dealt down cards only known to the players and exposed cards which everyone can see. The game differs to Omaha and Holdem as there are no community cards.

In Seven Card Stud every player receives seven cards in total (four face-up; three face-down) from which they make their best five-card hand. Read more

Omaha Hi-Lo - also known as Omaha 8

Absolutely my favourite game though it does take some mastering. The same rules as standard Omaha up until the showdown. Then the pot is split equally between the best high hand, and the best qualifying low hand. If there is no qualifying low hand, the high hand wins the entire pot.

Straights and flushes do not count against the low hand, but pairs do. To qualify, no card from the low hand may be above an 8. Remember you must use two of your hole cards so if there is not 3 cards below 9 in the community cards then there will be no low hand. Read more

Omaha
The most important rule to remember is you must use two of your hole cards with three of the community cards to form your best five card hand. This is the single biggest mistake beginners make.

Omaha is another variation of Texas Hold’em. The community card and betting structure is exactly the same as Hold’em, except that each player is dealt four hole cards instead of two. With so many more cards on the table, the chances of something good happening increase dramatically. Of course it also means you’re going to need a better hand to win in Omaha than you will Hold’em.

In Holdem, there are no high or low suits. All suits are treated equally. In the event of a most ties, the winning hand is determined by the order of highest to lowest cards. If the cards are perfectly equal, then a tie is declared and the pot is split.
