Default An amazing thing

There are way more posts in this forum than I can respond to. New ones are appearing and old ones getting bumped around constantly. It's almost starting to look like the hold'em forum. How long until we start hearing about the stud boom?

Might be the hand converter that triggered this “stud forum boom”.
It’s all greenages fault. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

If the hand converter were actually user friendly, it might be worse. And if Bull ever figures out how to copy/paste, watch out! Just kidding, although I wish he would get someone to help him use it. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

This is odd - I was thinking the very same thing. There seems to be a big upswing in the both the number of posts and the number of new users. Good news for the game.

I agree. I hope the regular posters don't get tired of sifting through the higher volume. I have reached a new bankroll goal and want to thank everyone here for getting me to think about the game all day at work instead of doing my work!

Yeah agreed. At least in my case, I got sick of Hold Em, bought HLSPFAP to pick up Omaha 8, and then said, "Hmmmm, why not read the first half?". Then I got into Stud. I just wanna thank all the great players in this forum for elevating my game from shitty to decent. That's all it takes to beat my friends.

Default Wurd

I notice more and more stud8 tables on PS everynight. All the posters in this forum are really quality also. I like it here. We also seem to be picking up a lot of good new posters, I like it more. If my game wasnt so perfect I would have more to post...*sighs then busts into laughter* ADIOS and GL

its only a matter of time before stud hits prime time. Holdem is great for TV but it sucks for everything else. Stud is so much more fun.

I agree that stud is the better game to play, but it is not suited well for TV; watching the WSOP stud game last year on ESPN was great to see on TV but it was difficult to follow the flow of the game even for me. It had to turn many away after the first few hands.
