Is there enough money in Stud to make it worth learning?

[Duke]

There are so few hands that have absolute value in stud that (most) every decision must be made on the fly. Stud games seem a lot more passive than Hold'em games, as a raise is a lot more powerful in stud, but I would agree that high variance is possible. I've been fortunate to be able to find fairly passive opponents in the LA 15-30 and 30-60 games recently, though, and have seen a lot less variance than I have in Hold'em. Aggression is a big factor.
