WSOP Preparation: Stud Strategy - Why Aggression Makes Sense

The 2017 World Series of Poker is nearly upon us, and with it comes an opportunity to play games other than no-limit hold'em or pot-limit Omaha.

This time of year in Las Vegas brings out the stud games — specifically seven-card stud, seven-card stud hi-low eight-or-better, and razz.

Each of these stud games have their own tournaments on the WSOP schedule while also being part of multi-game events like H.O.R.S.E and the 8-game mix. Stud games additionally turn up as part of other events like the Omaha Hi-Low/Stud Hi-Low mix and Dealer's Choice. You're also likely to find decent cash game action at the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino, though it tends to be at $30/$60 limits and above.
