I think tight is the way.
I`ve just sat for over an hour in a $1/2 FL stud game. I started with $100 and finished with $170.
Now I know it is a one off but the more I sat and thought about the game of stud holdem, it is more important to fold before the action starts. The amount of times I was watching other guys play most hands and u could see what was happening.
They were getting into a hand that was poor but it improved on 4th street, got better on 5th and better again on 6th. However, it never got as good as the origional raiser. So I suppose they were kidding themselves.
So I think stud is a mix of losing as little as you can when u are behind in a hand, and winning as much as you can when you are ahead.
The big advantage you have in stud, IMO, is u have a better idea of what ppl are chasing.
Only my opinion.

Ive also recentley tried stud, at first i only played 10c/20c then as i got better and started reading strategy i moved up to 25c/50c.
I done pretty well but when i had a go at 50c/$1 i didnt do so good, so i moved down stakes and kept losing again, because of this i dont really play stud anymore. But, i think the best way to play if pretty tight.
Side note: Ive just got pocket 7s 3 times in a row!!

Just as in holdem, just because I see someone win a huge pot playing 62o to a PF raise, doesn't mean that that's a winning strategy in the long run.
Everyone likes rolled up trips

Hi all, hope you are well.
I`m playing a lot of STUD games at the moment and I`m doing ok when I play MTT. I`m playing low levels, about $5 buy ins.
I play a ery tight game, I need at least a pair to start, or 3 to a flush with less than 2 other cards from my suit showing, playing open ended straights, etc - so a ery basic, solid strategy for MTT stud. I do open up when the ante and limits increase if needed.
My question, however, is relating to ring games.
I`ve started to play Fixed limit and I ary between $0.50/1.00 and $1.00/2.00. The ante, as you guys will probably know, is only $0.05 and $0.10 respectivly.
I have noticed a lot of guys limp in with anything, and I know it might just be perception, but a lot of them do well, chasing to the bitter end with any pair and hitting trips on the river, etc.
Now I am not suggesting I should play any 2 cards but I would be interested to know if you guys would loosen up your starting hand requirements?
