    Been watching some hi-stakes stud H/L on FTP over the past few weeks - seems to be attracting more & more of the FT pros.

    At the moment, there's David B, Singer, Matusow and Schulman on 500/1000 (Falcon Ridge) ....

    So is Stud H/L becoming the new PLO, or are some of the pros working on their Stud game for the WSOP HORSE ??

    Probably not, Singer's always hiding there because he's a stud beast. Matusow there... well... I don't know whyn (same w/Schulman) but Benyamine is always there whenever there's a good big game. For instance, through highstakesdb.com, we know he's a loser at NL holdem, but he can't help but play it if there's a big game.

    Stud H/L probably the most fun game for them to play.

    It's my favorite game, but I'm no 1000/2000 beast like Queso.

    It is one thing for 18 year old kids to be winning at the highiest levels in Hold-em (which still boggles my mind), but Stud H/L, wow. Damn that's impressive. Queso did you start playing when you were 12? How have you already learned this game well enough to feel comfortable sitting in this game? I am not doubting that you should be sitting in this game because from your posts on this site, you come off as reasonable person and not a degenerate gambler (not like I would really know) so I assume if you sit in that high of a game, that you feel that you have an edge (and I don't doubt that you do). 2010 HORSE Champion??

    Prolly not considering PLO is supposedly where hold em was before the Moneymaker Effect hit it.

    With players seeing the flop %'s hovering around 25-30% at a loose NL limit game these days a lot of guys are moving to split pot games just for the greater action...
