Simple, Solid Text to Develop or Rejuvenate Your Game

Even after placing in many, and winning a few Stud tournaments I knew that my game was weak when it came to this poker variant.I had read many books on other forms of poker, but had never really worked on developing my stud game. I purchased 2+2's Stud Poker for Advanced Player's but I was stuck somewhere between an introductory book and that more advanced book and what's more I was pretty sure that advanced tactics were all but worthless in a low-limit game or in an online environment where it seems as though all the stakes are played as if they are low.I heard about this book from a player online who recognized its author at our table and complimented him on the text.I thought maybe this was a good book for me and that turned out to be right. While it starts off getting total beginners up to speed, there is something in this book for everyone.Street by street, Paul Kammen advises you on the play of each type of playable hand with which you will be faced. At the end of each situation covered there is a Quick Guide that can be referenced in a flash. In addition, there is a nice collection of odds listed in tables in the appendix.This is relatively new book, having just been published in late 2003, but I believe it is an instant classic. It belongs alongside, Lee Jones' Low-Limit Holdem text in your poker library. If you have read Lee's book then you know that this is high praise and that Paul's book is required reading.If you are going to be playing low-limit stud you need to grab this book or lose money to those who did.

Good Intro Stud Book

Good tips, advice, and pointers for the novice stud player. I feel more confident at a home game or the card room because poker can be intimidating!

A Solid Stud Poker Intro Book

Poker is becoming more popular and I wanted to learn how to play. This book gave me easy to follow advice, tips, reviews, and even had a glossary for reference in the back. I'm not sure that I "will start winning" like the book says but at least I have the basic knowledge to play smart no matter if the cards are turning for me.
