I'm not overly fond of LHE for the obviously reason that noone ever folds, lol. I'm still learning all the other games in HORSE and enjoy it cuz it's different.

Do I detect a hint of jealousy?


Uh, no. You know I would've won if I played that tourney anyway, provided I didn't clash with BCT...


Yeah, well you gotta be in it to win it, I'm tired of your "if" excuses. Put up, or shut up.

My answer was going to be an obvious Razz but then I thought about it and had to go with Stud Hi/Lo, followed by O8. I really enjoy Stud and Omaha (prefer PLO) but the split games suck.

I LOVE games that I'm doing well in. The ones I HATE, are the games I'm losing in.

Always.

Right now, I love Razz, and HATE Limit Hold 'Em.

That'll change in the morning, I'm sure. 8)

Razz just seems like a game where, if it didn't exist and somebody suggested it out of the blue today, it would never take off.

limit holdem. Nobody fold anything. I've had jj beat 4 times by 6,3s 7,4 j,3 and 6,4d. All these guys called a 2dollar raise with these marvalous hands and won. You can't bet enouph to get the bad hands out and the worst hand always hits.

I like all the games but for some reason I do not look forward to the Hold Em round. It is my best game and the one have the most experience in, but most of the players do not play the other games well and I feel I can play all the game at a competent level. I just came to this site and HORSE is awesome, it pretty much all I play anymore.

Omaha Hi Lo, I tend to play all the hi/lo games for low and play them like razz (7 high or better) so I usually end up folding alot and only playing good low hands and boats.

Read the posts, a lot of omaha 8ob haters out there. Goddam Smile That's my main game, the one I feel most confident about. I probably hate razz the most (if I would have to pick one it would be that one) cuz it mostly knibbles away my bankroll. Closely followed by Stud high. Don't really feel too much for that game. Hey, I'm a split pot gamer, any 8 or better game is my thing...

Holdem is allright, especially since it's limit in HORSE. My holdem skills are sufficient I'd say, but I don't trust them in a no limit format. To each his own I suppose Smile

My second favourite game would be stud hi lo and like I said the absolute nr 1 is omaha hi/lo. Ya can't match the thrill of a nice scoop Smile

My weak game at horse is by far OMAHA HI LOW. I find myself to be a very good omaha hi player but bad omaha hi low player

I HATE H/L games. By far my worst is Omaha H/L. I can't wrap my head around only playing the nuts. I've started to fold any hand that doesn't contain A2 unless I'm in late position and nobody has raised. I hate having a full house and losing. I hate getting the non-nut flush/straight/low and having to fold. I hate quartering pots with identical lows. I just plain hate the game period.

By far my best and favorite game in horse is razz. I started playing horse after I had about 50 razz tournies and about 10,000 cash game hands under my belt. There are so many donks in the razz portion of the game that I could probably fold every hand in O8, stud, and stud8 and still make the money as long as I got hands in holdem and razz. I may be exagerrating but it is not uncommon for me to triple my stack or better in the later stages of a horse tourney when the razz round comes up. I once went from 2500 chips to 45000 in one razz round and took 12th out of 400 as a result. If there weren't an O8 round I would have started the razz round with about 8000 and I have complete confidence I would have finished in the top three.
