Re: new to 7card stud hi/lo split, need help starting out
[ QUOTE ]
Basic strategy is you want to play hands with scooping potential like 3/4/5 where-as a hand like 2/5/8 is really not worth playing as you are only playing for half the pot.

I'm playing Stud 8 right now for the first time (Stars .04/.08 [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]) I will order Ray Zee's book right now, but in the meantime as far as starting hands go...
1. So any hand that with all three cards less than 8 is not automatically good enough to be playable?
2. Is any hand with even one card above an 8 an automatic muck (aside from rolled up trips?)
3. How about 3 suited cards with a King?
3. In a nano-limit game like I'm in, muck any high pocket pairs?
4. Do you muck any paint on the fourth card? I just had 345suited, then a Q. I continued to play.
5. I just had QxQ and it was HU with low card showing so I continued to play. GooT?
