FTOPS Razz

Thought I’m not playing the FTOPS events as compulsively as I have in the past, I am playing my favorites. So far, though, it hasn’t been too interesting and I decided to spare you the litany of bad beats. Last night I had my first cash, taking 40th in the $300 Razz. The only potentially interesting hand was the one where I lost my stack:

Looking at it now this doesn’t look so bad, but at the time I had an awful feeling about it. Possibly a better Razz player can escape at some point. It’s hard to say, though- by the time he’s raising fifth, the pot is quite big. I do have draws at a 6 occasionally people will overplay bad Razz hands, though I don’t think that was happening here.
