Proper Strategy...Any advice would be greatly appreciatedd

[Rookie]

Hi,what would be the right strategy playing poker with 32 cards 7's and up to A (78910JQKA). Some of the games are as follow's....Max.players 6 everyone is dealt 4 cards,someone must open to start,you can use only 2 cards in your hand,3 cards are floped(community cards)betting then another 3 cards are floped betting and then 1 more card a kicker for either flop,last bet.
Another game played everyone is dealt 3 cards,can use all cards,someone must open,1 card is floped betting,another card is floped betting and the another,now you have the option to discard 1 card if there is 5 or more players left,or 2 cards if there is 4 or less players,then the betting resumes,fourth cards is floped and then the last card 5th. Flushes are better than Fullhouse in all the games. If you are dealt 4 cards in any given game straight's are better than 3 of a kind,if you are playing any gamed with 3 cards in the hole 3 of a kind are better than straight's.
What would be the best strategy for playing in this type of a game,it's a lose game stakes are 2 4 6 or 5 10 tables.
They call the game Boomba 32 card poker.
thx Rookie.

You need to figure out good starting hands. To do that you need to figure out which hands tend to win showdowns. So try this: deal out hands face up, then put the community cards out there, then (if need be) replace a card, all without betting. Note the value of the winning hand. If there are enough cards left in the stub, deal out another set of community cards (keeping the original hands), and note the winning hand.

Do this a lot. You will start to notice the sort of hand that are required to win, and can then deduce what sorts of hands to start with.

I suspect the following: You will notice that "top full house" (full house using with the same rank as the pair on board) is a common winning hand, but you cannot be comfortable without the "over-full" house (full house ranked as big as the highest card on board), suggesting that small full houses are the pits, suggesting that small cards (7-J) are not worth playing. Straights do not win; flushes are too infrequent to win. In your first game (there are two flops and 7 community cards), you must start with high cards and MUST hit the first flop hard to continue. In the second game (start with 3 cards, get one more card at a time) you need to start with a good 3-card hand. Its far too expensive to call a few bets trying to make something.
