Getting started...

What is a good sight to start playing 7Stud? I was thinking 1/2 or 2/4.

Party.

Poker Stars has a $.10 ante on the $1/$2 games and a $.25 ante on the $2/$4.

Most other sites (Party, Empire, UB, Absolute, Prima, Paradise, etc.) have a $.25 ante on both $1/$2 and $2/$4 games.

Party and UB seem to be the softest at the small stakes in my opinion, but UB will not have near the table selection that Party offers.

Party will probably have the easiest games, but if you are thinking you may move up in limits in the near future stars ante structure would be better for you.

Yeah, if he's planning to move up to 30/60.

or 3/6 and 5/10, isn't that pretty close to the same structure?
ante around 10% of the small bet.

Maybe I’m missing something but didn’t you say Stars ante structure is better at higher limits? And now you’re saying it’s the same (which is what I was saying, too).

(Actually I thought their $3/$6 has a $.25 ante which sucks).

Sorry, poorly worded I guess. I did mean stars structure is the same throughout the lower limits. Yea, 3/6 is a little off.

Then he gets to play shorthanded with Carlos. Doesn't get any better than that.
