How to play 7 card stud?


A few days back I introduced you into the wonderful world of Pot Limit Omaha.
Today I’ll teach you how to play 7 Card Stud.

Texas Holdem and Omaha are some kind of similar games, with 5 community cards on the table. Only big difference is that instead of 2 cards in your hand, you’ll be holding 4 cards.

In stud, you’ll don’t get any community cards, but you can see 4 cards of your opponents 7 hand cards. Best 5 of these cards win, just like in Texas Holdem.
The game starts with 3 cards dealt to each player. These 2 cards will be dealt, face down, 1 face up, also starts the first betting round.
The next 3 cards will be dealt face up, so every other player can see them and between every face card, there will be a betting round also. The final card will be dealt face down again and includes the last bets.

After all betting rounds are completed, the players can put them into the showdown.

As said before, variation of games is good for the continuous growing process you’ll need to becom a top notch poker player. Maybe 7 Card stud is the game for you to try?

Even better than a Royal Flush


A Royal Flush is the best you can get in poker. With this hand you got the NUTS for sure.
I’m one of those players, that never got a Royal Flush so far, but today I received something far more better than a Royal Flush. smile

My girlfriend just gave birth to our second child, a son called Tristen. A Royal Flush doesn’t even come near to the value of what I got today. smile
Everything went allright, son is in good shape, with 3180gr and 48,5cm, starting to eat well. Also my girlfriend is fine also, she did a hell of job getting him out.

You’ll never hear me say that giving birth to a baby is easy, I’m so proud of her and Tristen.

So in the next couple of days, private life is priority nr1 and we’ll see how it goes with playing online again. Hope to be in time for the SCOOP Event, still have a ticket won with the WCOOP that has to be cashed smile

Goodnight all!

Pot Limit Omaha


The most played poker game still is Texas Holdem, but it’s fun to play other poker games also. I found out that it will actually improve your regular poker game.

Sometimes you’ll be playing and playing and playing, that you’ll get tired of playing and this will infect your game in the bad sense. So what do I do if I feel this is coming up, I’m switching card games.
One of them is Omaha, limited or not.

How to Play Pot Limit Omaha?
First of all, Omaha is almost the same as Texas Holdem, except you’ll be getting 4 handcards instead of 2 and 2 cards in your hand will be counted into your 5 best cards after the river.

What’s the big difference with Texas Holdem I hear you ask? Well Omaha is more a drawing game. You can have the best startinghands possible, but with the many possibilities of draws that can be made after the flop, this can change in just a draw. I can have the worst hand after the flop and on the Turn I could be in the lead, so fast it can change.

So with Pot Limit Omaha, if you’re holding good starting hands, always raise to the max you can pre-flop. Scare off others as soon as possible.
After the flop, you can take a look what everyone is doing and decide to bet or not. If you made your hand even better, again bet, don’t just call, raise instead. The lesser people on the river the more chance you’ll have to win. Three Aces are losing from a straight if you play against 359K with AJ2Q4 on the table, you don’t want your opponent to hit the nuts at the river.

On the other hand, if you’re having bad starting hands, they could be very profitable for you after the flop. So try to see the flop as much as possible if you can, who knows what shows up. smile
