Default Re: New Game at Wynn... $10/20 mix!!

Yeah, part of the problem may be that I've never read any literature or played it ever. I don't even know of any literature that exists. In general still feel pretty uncomfortable with the stud games since I have so much less experience with that format. Position is different, there are no blidns, it's weird man! If I had it my way we would only play the button games, but gotta be ableto compromise or the games would never go.

Bugstud - we can't eliminate holdem because if we did I would feel like a goober 100% of the time instead of the current 85% or whatever.

your edge should be much higher in any other non-holdem game. I personally stole the blinds 4 hands in a row in holdem, but would get sick sick action on other games.

Yeah, the holdem is much tighter I'm sure because most of the players are most used to holdem. Last time I played in that game I had the beautiful experience of raising and winning uncontested 3 pots in a row, then making the fourth opening raise with AA. I always thought the triple draw section was beautifully soft(raise then draw 3, or coldcall raise then draw 3 etc). Maybe the others are too but I'm just too much of afish at those to notice.

Triple Draw - Other Poker & Super System II (remember, Daniel doesn't consider pot size at all, but you should)

Razz - Try to master Triple Draw 2-7 first, then read Sklansky on Poker. Your eyes will open up like never before. Also TOP of course.

That's awesome. I definitely would play more at the casinos in my area if they spread a game like that.

Only reason people play Razz is because they all think they can win a game where the worst hand wins [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] -

And then most of the reason people hate the game is because while you can start out with great pockets in a Stud game and have them hold up without improvement, you are ALWAYS on the draw in a Razz game, and so are your opponents - the goal is to suckout better then your opponent - so that can set people off...

but I started playing it after FT Poker offered it - nice diversion.
