Default 5 card stud

Anyone play this anymore? Or better yet anyone know where to find a quick reference on startable hands and strategys? I ended up playing a $10 MTT yesterday that I thought was going to be 7-card until they dealt and I only got 2 cards. I finished 7th out of 32 and made a very small profit, but I also had fun learning what seemed to be how to play.

Quick strategy: play pairs and two big cards. Bet the nuts. Beware of people betting what may be the nuts into you.

Google for "five card stud".

5 Card Stud is virtually dead, apart from it living on with the Prima network, replaced by the 7 Card version.

I like 5 Card Stud (though I'm terrible at it) and have searched on the Internet to try to find a definitve strategy for it with odds etc a la Super System ... yet sadly to no avail. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

5 card stud NL should only be played when you can pull out $5k more from your pocket and place your opponent $4k in debt to call you A la Cincinnati Kid


Just getting that off my chest

It's also on Paradise. As for strategy, occasionally I see some old Dover book at B&N -- presumably pulled out of circulation in the 1960's and reissued for the poker boom -- that only talks about five-draw and five-stud. Al Mipuri had some book references once but he's gone from this site I believe.

The Paradise play money games are kinda fun in their mindlessness, but I've never played it for money.
