Stud Help...8 GAME
I have been playing alot of 8 GAME, 4/8 on stars lately and I am finding my weakest game is stud. I find guys calling down with split 2's and hitting 2 pr on river or trips. Beating my split aces when I complete. Is this just due to variance. I an not a fan of calling with small splits, I am more inclined to draw until 5th if I am sitting with 2 in the hole. Looking for thoughts. I tend to play 3 suits stong if they are together ie; 8h, 9h, Jh. Is this prefitable in the long run.
Thanks.
Thanks.

no.
play anything suited or connected with your door cards and draw to the nuts
ive played alot of 8 game at that limit against "frys wit dat" and "talon chick" and ive done some damage there drawing to flushes and straights, and even 2 pr...
you can work them if you are smart, seriously just out play them, all the people that play 8 game are stations... you can easily pwn their 2 pair a high percent of the time as long as your hand selection is mediocre.
if you want a pretty good starting door card selection in stud then PM me and i can give u the chains on how to crush the 8 game regs... they really are really bad.
