Stud Poker Strategy: Dropping Down to Raise it Up Ashley Adams	There's a lot of ego in poker; it's one of the motivations for many players. We poker players are a combative and competitive lot. We prove how tough and 'bad' we are by the games we're in. The higher the stakes, the better players... more
Stud Poker Strategy: Beware Two Pair (Weak Ones) Ashley Adams	Some poker players overvalue two pair – playing them very strongly when they should not be doing so. We have a name for those types of players: Losers. Two pair is a tricky hand. It is often second best or worse, yet there are situations when... more
Stud Poker Strategy: The Auto-Bet Ashley Adams	I've noticed one quality among stud players that stands out more than any other. We tend to be old. There's nothing wrong with that. Think wisdom and experience; we tend to have them in spades. But we also tend to have some deficiencies... more
Stud Poker Strategy: Stud in the Afternoon Ashley Adams	It was a sunny summer day in Boston. There was a slight breeze. It was warm enough and clear enough to be a beach day. But I wanted to play poker more than I wanted to lie on the sand. I had finished my work for the afternoon and left... more
Stud Poker Strategy: Saving Bets Ashley Adams	In my last article I wrote about getting full value for your hand by betting it on the river. This doesn't mean that you will always call on the river. There are times when you can save a bet based on the betting action. Let me give you... more
Stud Poker Strategy: Full Value Ashley Adams	I was driving home from Foxwoods Resort Casino (see my poker room review on this great poker room) with my friend Jim. He and I were celebrating our 30th year of friendship with a trip to our favorite poker room. It had been a late night... more
Stud Poker Strategy: A Stud Desert in Las Vegas Ashley Adams	I just came back from a trip to Las Vegas – where I played in the World Series of Poker. This six-week poker competition is known best for its Main Event, the $10,000 no-limit hold'em contest. That's the one that where the winner earns... more
Stud Poker Strategy: Roll the Dice Ashley Adams	The expression 'rolling the dice' usually comes with negative connotations for the poker purist. Meaning 'to gamble,' it implies that someone is leaving the outcome of an event to chance, as in, 'I didn't study at all for this test... more
Stud Poker Strategy: Stranger in a Strange Game Ashley Adams	I was traveling through Virginia a few weeks back – there for a business trip. I found myself on a lake about thirty miles south of Lynchburg. Lynchburg is the home of Liberty University – the fundamentalist Christian school... more
Stud Poker Strategy: Quads Redux Ashley Adams	It was a hand for the ages. Literally one week after my last column on how to play quads on the first four cards in stud, I was dealt quads on the first four cards. This is how it happened... more
Stud Strategy - Poker Islands Ashley Adams	There are no public poker room on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. And it's painfully tough on vacationing poker players – because none of the locals will let you into their private games. I know. I used to spend two weeks each summer.... more
Stud Poker Strategy: Quads on Fourth Street Ashley Adams	Quads happen. Sure, it's rare; very rare, in fact. But it does happen. On average, you'll be dealt quads in the first four cards of 7-card stud about once in every 18,500 hands. If you play 30 hands an hour, that's about once every 600... more
Stud Poker Strategy: Big Pot Stud Ashley Adams	I spend most of my stud-playing hours at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Ledyard, Connecticut. From time to time, however, I like to travel for my poker action. Unfortunately, there are few places in the world where decent 7-card stud is spread... more
Stud Poker Strategy – The 'Hit and Run' Ashley Adams	There is a school of poker strategy that encourages the hit and run approach. Others eschew it as much on the felt as they do on the road. Should you, the thoughtful poker player, embrace or avoid such a strategy... more
Stud Poker Strategy - Adjustments for Very Good Games, Part II Ashley Adams	I've been writing about how to take advantage of a very good game – a game with lots of loose action – though not a ramming-jamming game with lots of raising. This game calls for a different approach. I started out last time... more
Stud Poker Strategy - Adjustments for a Very Good Game, Part 1 Ashley Adams	You will sometimes find yourself in a berry patch, a fish farm, or a honey pot – all synonyms for a very good poker game. What makes it good? By my standards, a bunch of loose and passive players. I'm not talking about the highly aggressive... more
Stud Poker Strategy - Exceptions to Rules of Thumb Ashley Adams	In my last column I explained some good rules of thumb to help guide your play, in general, at the stud table. I explained that these rules can help the thoughtful player, keep him from becoming paralyzed with indecision... more
Stud Poker Strategy - Good Rules of Thumb Ashley Adams	Poker is a game with many variables. You need to consider the cards you hold, the cards your opponent holds, and the cards you think he thinks you're holding. You must consider his history of play and his consideration.... more
Stud Poker Strategy - X-Ray Vision, Part II Ashley Adams	In my first installment of this two-part series I wrote about the ability to see through the backs of your opponents' cards – as if you had those X-Ray glasses advertised in the back of comic books. I explained that your opponents' cards more
Stud Poker Strategy - X-Ray Vision - Part I Ashley Adams	I remember as a kid seeing ads in the back of comic books for x-ray glasses. You remember the ad, don't you? It was a picture of this guy wearing lightly shaded glasses and staring at a woman who clearly appeared to him to be naked... more
