Defferent PokerStars Stud Game

Eight Card Stud

This PokerStars game usually starts off like Seven-Card Stud, but it ends up with an additional down card and betting interval. Although there are variations on the mechanics of the deal, (such as three cards down, four up, one down), each player who remains active all the way ends up with four down cards and four up cards.
The staying requirements are the same as for Seven-Card Stud. Straights and flushes will usually win if they connect. But full houses are not at all uncommon-especially when several open pairs show around the board.

Five Card Stud

A word of caution. Much of the professional cheating that I've seen has been at Five-Card Stud. A second dealer is murder in this game, simply because so much depends on so few cards. If he manages to deal himself or his accomplice a pair of aces or kings in Cincinnati Liz, he hasn't necessarily done too much to you; but it's hard to beat a dealer who can control the distribution of aces and kings in Five-Card Stud. On the other hand, Five-Card Stud is really a classic game and many people prefer it to any other, especially for high stakes.
Like everyone else who is still a work-in-progress and isn’t quite perfect yet, and who harbors no illusions about living in a state of grace in the foreseeable future, I’m always keen on improving myself. New Year’s always has been the traditional time for shouting these good intentions to the heavens, forgiving ourselves for past failings and transgressions, and vowing with all the resolve that we can muster, to do a better job of things next year.

Stud History

In High Low PokerStars, as in life itself, talk comes cheaply while achieving these lofty goals takes unrelenting effort. Still, here are my poker resolutions for 1996, and you’re cordially invited to consider them your own if you believe that their adoption will help improve your game. I’m not offering many resolutions only four, to be exact. But that’s OK. They’re what I want to accomplish this year.
Learn Another Game: There are times when the hold’em game is crowded and the waiting list is long. On other occasions, the game is tough. During these times, I’ve either waited for another hold’em game to open up, or for the original game to soften up. I’ve also noticed that other games looked very beatable and had seats available. To maximize my time, I plan to play enough Omaha eight-or-better or high-low split poker stud ths year to feel like a favorite in those games, too. Don’t get me wrong, I love hold’em. It’s my best game as well as my favorite, but I do want to diversify.
Never Go On Tilt; Never Play Less than My Best: This is a recurring resolution, while I have, on occasion, played less than my best, I do believe that I’ve achieved my personal goal of not going on tilt. Still, controlling emotions in the heat of battle is a never-ending endeavor. When my senses are rubbed raw by a bad beat administered by a particularly obnoxious player, I always can bring myself to get up and walk away from the table until I’ve finished devouring my own innards. But I have played less than my best, and I intend to stop. I’ve played when I was tired, or otherwise didn’t have the concentration to play up to my own standards. When that happened, I usually played poorly  not by a lot, mind you, but even playing poorly by a little is enough to upset the delicate balance needed to be a winner.
