The complete guide to razz poker
Razz poker popularity has grown considerably since the big poker boom of 2004. In 2009 the leading online poker rooms saw a huge rise in Razz poker cash game and tournament traffic. 7 Card Stud and Stud Hi-Lo also grew in popularity which means Razz is still the least played on the 3 Stud variants but this won't be a problem. At Poker Stars and Full Tilt Poker alone there are hundreds of real money Razz poker players at the tables around the clock. You'll find active ring tables at stakes ranging from $.04/$.08 to $30/$60. Razz poker is played exclusively in the fixed limit format at both rooms. Our Razz poker strategy section contains a wide range of articles written by experienced Razz players.Related Articles:
The Best Razz Poker Rooms
Though Razz poker is offered at most online poker rooms this web site will only list the ones that have enough traffic to sustain active real money tables at a wide range of stakes levels. It would be easy to lie and claim that 4-5 rooms offer excellent Razz poker action, as most of my competitors do, but I'm not going to waste your time. If you are looking for a poker room that has healthy traffic at the small - high stakes levels there are only two rooms worth mentioning, Poker Stars and Full Tilt Poker. For those of you that may still have doubts I have taken the initiative and taken screenshots of the real money Razz poker tables at both rooms:

At Pokerstars during peak hours in 2010 you will find roughly 150-175 real money Razz poker players at the tables. Full Tilt Poker boasts a little less at 125-150. Both of these rooms also offer a diverse Razz poker tournament line-up, including a large weekly Razz tournament with a huge guaranteed prize pool to finish up the week. If you prefer tournaments with small-medium buy-ins they each host a variety of guaranteed events with smaller buy-ins everyday.
