Paradise and Stars have $.02/$.04.

You'll never learn to play proper stud on these tables where it costs an entire $.20 to call all the way to 7th street. You'll find that most of these games will have 4 or 5 players drawing to 7th, which means someone will hit a flush or straight after being way behind on 5th street nearly every time.

One way to learn, is to play the $.50/$1.00 no ante game at Paradise and play super tight (doesn't cost to see the 1st 3 cards unless you are the "bring-in"). You can probably start with $50 (minimum deposit in most cases) or so. At first, play only big pairs, 3-straights and 3-flushes, then mix in a few others once you start to feel comfortable.
