Posted by M3turbo: Ok ty any advice for 7-card stud too I seem to suck at that too....first time both games don't even know the rulees lol
lol. Stud is like holdem. The best combination wins. You just receive 2 card down, four cards up and the last one down. So if you receive 77733 in stud, go all in without hesitation, but if you receive 77733 in razz will be better fold.

That is why i love RAZZ. Opponents have no clue.
Posted by M3turbo: Anyone else fooling around with the freerolls?
Yep. But most SnGs don't make it past the holdem round.

You need different starting hands for Stud and Stud hi - low. When you play split game (Hi lo) you should never play medium cards (8, 9 and 10) even if you have pair in your hand. I dont play JJx, too.
Call me sadistic but this is the reason I introduced these tourneys. There's regular HORSE and other poker tournaments (non-Hold'Em) running quite often so I'm hoping that our BBP players are going to end up totally cleaning up at these events purely because you'll be the only guys who have the slightest clue what they're doing!!
Nothing would make me happier than you guys wiping the floor with the rest of the network at all non-Hold'Em games!!
One word of warning though... it's really good to know lots of poker varients but don't get suckered into to playing at the same stakes as you do in Hold'Em until you're really familiar iwth the game. It's all too easy to think that because you an play $1/2 or whatever at Hold'Em that this is the level you should sit down and play PLO or Stud.

As always, best of luck at the tables!!!
