I played 7-stud high for plastic chips when I was a kid - but H/L doesn't seem like something I could pick up in a day or two. oh well.

Zee's book is great, although I really only paid attention to the OMaha8 section. I know little about stud hi/lo, but I'll tell you what I do know:

Like HE, starting hand's are key. you want 3 cards all below 7, or 3 to a straight/flush.

you want hands that can scoop the whole pot..which is why the best hands are the ones that can make a wheel, or freeroll against weak high hands.

if your 4th card is a 'brick' (like a J, if you start w/ 256), then you should probably fold.

you need to remeber all the up/folded cards, as you'll need this info for proper pot odds. I think Poker office does this.
