Razz Question

Hi,
I rarely play anything other than NL but was in a Full Tilt H.O.R.S.E. freeroll today. Just was wondering if I had the best hand until the last card on this hand.

what about this one?

yes and yes

(I would be concerned on the first hand though if you got from 4th/5th to 7th without checking it down)

In hand 1, you were leading until the A hit him on the river. Your final hand played 9 8 4 3 2, and your opponent played 8, 7, 6, 3, A for which he won. Prior to the A, his best hand would have been 3, 3, 8, 7, 6.

Hand 2: Winner had 7, 5, 3, 2, A. Other guy had 8, 7, 4, 2, A. You finished with 7, 6, 4, 2, A

Does that help? Remember, Razz hands are determined by looking at the highest of you low cards being played first, then moving downward, so you did have the other guy beaten because your 7 was lower than his 8. Against the winner though, you both had 7, but his second card was lower (his 5 vs your 6).

Thank you guys, I find this a tricky game especially limit because you have the best hand one card and then crud the next card. I was at least hoping I was going in the right direction. Being a freeroll everyone was in every hand no matter what. Very little checking down, just call call raise call call call.....
you know what I mean.

thanks for the explanation JD, it helped.
