In Razz Poker, each player is dealt seven cards throughout the hand, but only the best five-card low hand is used to determine the winner. Unlike traditional high-hand poker games, straights and flushes do not count against you in Razz, and Aces are always considered low. The objective is to make the lowest possible hand, where the best hand you can achieve is A-2-3-4-5, also known as the “wheel.”
Razz Poker Example
For example, if Player A has 7-6-5-4-3 and Player B has A-2-3-4-6, Player B wins because A-2-3-4-6 is a lower hand than 7-6-5-4-3.
