Default Re: Stud Eight or Better Question

I'm not a stud8 expert but I'd say:

E. It's much more than slightly better to refuse it

Not many good things can come from everybody knowing your hand on all but the last street. Especially in a split pot game against seven experts in the game.

At best you'd be competing for half the pot the majority of the time (and often not making it), and many times finding yourself jammed between a high pair(s) and a lower low showing on the board. And whenever you paired a "hole card", well, it would get ugly if you were stubborn enough to keep drawing.
