you only have to spot the shark and the rest if easy pickings. I play this whenever I need quick BR boost and there is a game going. Just wish more would tough it out and really learn to play so it is easier to find a game.
I like Razz too, and the above description is pretty accurate..... but you forgot to mention the guy that is sitting at a Razz table because he wants to be good at HORSE and this is the last game to learn. They are usually a little better than the donkey's and fish... but only marginally.

If you are playing Limit Stud, you should see chasers, since a majority of the time they are getting good odds to chase.

Other than holdem, I like a good game of draw poker. Nothing fancy. Nothing wild.
To get a chuckle at a live game with the family, I have called for One Card Poker. A single card, and you see everyone elses, but, your own which is placed on your own forehead facing out. High card wins. Bluffing is a must.
Also in live poker, a game of Blood and Guts is a blast.

Titan ---- I don't know if you play at Full Tilt but they usually have a RAZZ game going there. That is one that I know nothing about. I know the rules and that's about it.

I would have to say that mine is 7 card stud right now. It seems to me that there are a ton more chasers which can create some big pots. I am just getting in to non holdem games after a few years of playing mostly holdem and a little omaha. I've been playing stud for a couple of months and am really getting into it. There is so much to learn.
My new poker goals are to single out a new game every few months, read about it, play it at low stakes, and learn the ins and outs. I have played everything except for Razz but don't know much about any of them but holdem.
What are your favorite non-holdem games and why?
