Aggression Recomended in paul kammens book

[joeg]

Hi everyone

I recently decided to add stud to my selection of games played and have started by reading 'How to beat low limit 7 card stud' by Paul Kammen, on the whole I am impressed with the book but there is on bit of advice that is repeated that I think is wrong. Basically in the discussion of starting hands he advises to raise with big pairs unless you are certain that your opponents are so loose they will call, if your opponents are making a mistake by calling surely it is even more of a reason to raise, even though it wont reduce the field or am I missing something stratgicaly different between stud and holdem? This advice of only raising reasonably strong hands when there is a good chance your opponents will fold is repeated on later streets of the hand, is this a good strategy in stud?
