I think you're a bit mixed up with the game names too. Not sure which one you are wanting to play but Razz and Stud 8 Or Better are different games.

Stud 8 is 7 Card Stud played for hi and lo (same principle as Omaha Cool

. If there's no valid low hand then the high hand wins the entire pot.

Razz is 7 Card Stud played for low only. There's no 8 qualifier in this game.

You can play Razz at Full Tilt and Stars now have HORSE and HOSE ring games, although there's currently no Razz only tables.

I have recently started to have a go at the Horse cash game on Stars and I'm having some great fun. It may seem that limits are high but the reality is that you can buy in for $50 easily.

I have found some very loose play, if you stick (religiously) to good starting hands (I found Super System2 was great for this) you can make money. The most dangerous games for getting carried away and loosing your stack are the split games Omaha 8 and Stud H/L, be a bit careful!

Before starting it maybe worth playing each of the new games for a while to get the hang of them individually, also beware not realising the game has changed (real problem for me when going between Razz and Stud Sad

)

It has opened up a completely new poker chapter for me and is teaching me some very good lessons for all games i.e. not getting married to your apparent great hand!

Have a go good luck
