|
|
| I was just wondering if anyone had a favorite game or least favorite game in HORSE. I love the Omaha Hi/Lo and used to hate (but I am getting better at) Razz. I would only play razz if I had 3 cards under 6 but I am starting to be a bit more aggressive and playing what I see that have, not what I have. Last night I destroyed half the table when I swept a pot while holding AA25 double suited. I river quad aces and had a 6 low to knock out two people, one with a boat and the other with a 7 low. That was right after taking a huge pot in LHE with a boat. I ended up 2nd after I lost a huge hand HU in Stud High. They had 3 aces in the hole with a pair of 6s showing. I thought they were betting on trips or two pair and I had trip 9s. It was funny because right before that hand they gave a bunch of chips away thinking we were playing Razz and I was showing AKK. They said they thought I was crazy for betting with that when they were showing a 8 high. Gotta love people that don't pay attention. |

| i love the 7 card games, razz, stud and stud h/l. when i play horse this is the area where i can build my chips, without having to take big risks. limit hold'em is my downfall in this game, but i'm pretty proficient in all of them. i think the most fun game is stud though. |

| I prefer stud also, but that is because that is the game I first started playing when I got into poker and is also my strongest game. |

| Love all the games except stud hi/lo, It's such a tough game to me, I seem to overcommit to hands that at best, are only good for a split. I seem to do much better if I just play the other four games steady and lay back in stud hi/lo. |

Well, I don't have much experience with most of the horse games, but I've been playing some stud8 lately because I needed a break from hold 'em and I'm really intrigued by that game. The fact that I've hit a nice little upswing hasn't exactly made me like the game any less either.  |

Same here. I haven't played limit hold em nearly as much as I should have by this point, and sometimes I blow it in these stages. However, with the stud games, I believe I have an edge over a lot of the players I play with, so I also usually build my stack here. |

| I love Razz but Razz doesn't love me back. I used to hate Stud but I'm really starting to like the game now. I don't really have a least favorite anymore. I still suck the most at Omaha 8/ob. |

| All the stud games and Omaha hi/lo are pretty good for me, probably because everyone else tends to bad at them. LHE is by far my worst game. |

I can relate to that. I have played so much in the past years that it is nice when it switches. |
