Razz Poker Rules

Razz Poker Rules:        The goal in Razz Poker is to make the best 5-card low hand from 7 cards (straights and flushes don't count).

Each player starts with 2 hole cards and 1 up-card; there are then 3 more rounds of up-cards, with betting
after each card, and a final down card.  Each player ends up with 7 cards: 4 face up and 3
face down.

The player holding the best low hand using any 5 of their cards wins the pot. Aces are always low, and
flushes and straights don't count against your hand.  The best hand is A-2-3-4-5.

Every player puts an ante into the pot.

 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

The player having the highest up-card has a bring-in (a forced bet usually 1/3 to 2/3 of a complete bet).

The other players can either fold, call the bring-in, or complete the bet. 

After the bring-in bet has been completed, there is a limit of 3 raises.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 

All bets and raises before 5th street will be increments of the low-limit bet.

 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

5th street and beyond, the bets start at the higher limit (2 x low limit bet).

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 

The best low hand wins.
