Re: Why is this so wrong?
[ QUOTE ]
Your statement is greatly over simplified, to the point of being wrong. For example 3 straights are bad news for most players unless they have some other redeeming quality, like being suited or being live big cards. Another problem with a 3 straight is a lot of times you are drawing to a 2nd best hand if someone else is going for a flush.

yes i understand this, i do not see 234 and get excited and auto play it. the 3-straight hands i like starting with a hand like 9TJ or TJQ, and only if I do not see any of the cards I need to complete the straight, cards like: 78QK, etc.
Yes my statement is over-simplified and there is a lot more to 7 stud than I lead on. I'm sure in about 2-3 months I will look back on my remarks and laugh.
I have enjoyed success in the week I have played stud, nothing to write home about and certainly nothing to retire on. I'm a semi-serious player, meaning poker is only an additional source of income for me, and play maybe...14 hours a week max.
