| I think you should be able to play "Deuce-to-Seven" Lowball on Full Tilt because I think it is more like "real poker" (flushes and straights count against you for example) than razz is, does anybody agree with me? |

I'd agree that FT should offer 2-7TD(which won't be happening anytime soon), but I wouldn't agree w/the comment that Razz isn't like "real poker". That'd be like saying A-5 Lowball isn't real poker either. Some long time pros even regard Razz as poker in it's purest form. |

Why did you think you'd get supposrt for that argument by posting it in the "Razz" forum? Most people that frequent this lonely corner of the universe actually like the game and are glad FTP is the premiere site on which to play it.
That said, it does seem strange that they don't spread 2-7 TD when competing sites do, and I'd be curious to hear why. |

Totally disagree with the rational, but totally agree with the suggestion. It would be fun to have deuce-to-seven here. |

A few things I'd like to say:
- Draw poker and stud poker are completely different, don't see how you can compare razz to 2-7TD.
- This should be posted in the "Feedback and Feature Requests" section.
- I don't see how your argument for razz not being "real poker" can be valid. What exactly is "real poker"? If you're going for a low hand, can you really consider that "real poker"? |
