Hey do Essays I,II, and III cover stud/8?

I think that all three cover stud and limit hold'em exclusively. I can't remember Mason ever saying much of anything about stud/8.

No, they don't cover stud and limit exclusively. I've only read I and III, but I recall reading an essay in one of the volumes where Mason argues against a belief that Omaha is "the next Hold 'Em." I also think I remember him talking about ways to improve poker in cardrooms. Thus, he takes a stance on a lot of issues in poker, but I cannot recall whether or not he discusses Stud/8.

He dosent discuss stud/8. In fact he has even pointed out he knows little to nothing about the game.
