I just returned from a great trip to Paris, France, visiting my daughter and that great city. I also went to play poker. I played in two clubs – each in the nicest part of the city, right near the Arc D'Triomphe. What a beautiful scene...
Hi Ashley,
As far as being a great game, I couldn't agree with you more. Where I am from, we play in a 5/10 mixed game consisting of Hold'em, Omaha 8/b and Stud 8/b, all played pot limit. By far, the biggest pots we have are in the Stud 8/b rounds of play with the average pot being anywhere from $300 upwards to $1,200 or more. Pot limit stud requires a completely different way of thinking from the initial 3 cards all the way to 7th street. Personally, I wish stud was played like this more, or at least spread in some casinos in the U.S. Sadly, I have yet to find it anywhere other than home games.
Thanks for your articles and keep up the good work.
