Sunday RAZZ MTT

Razz Mtts can be so brutal; the variance in them is way higher than in No Limit Mtts. My wife played in the Sunday big $215 Razz Mtt on PokerStars yesterday. 74 players turned out for it with $4400 for first. She was in the top 4 the whole way through. Actually was in first for awhile when down to 24 players. We talked about her sitting out until the cash, which she could have done but we don’t roll like that. I told her just play tight and you will make the final table.(It was paying the final table only.) Instead she got brutally sucked out on in 2 big hands that crippled her. One was really brutal starting with A-4-5 and catching a 2 on forth. She proceeded to pair up and then makes a good 10. The villain had an 8 draw and made a bad nine on 7th street! That hand cost her over ½ of her chips, Razz can be so brutal. She finished up around 16th in the MTT. A good showing but even cashing in 8th would have been great. She played the tournament by buying her ticket with FPPs she had saved up. Oh well there is always next time. Thanks for reading and good luck at the tables. Tony
