  3. Triple Stud Poker is the newest addition to the mixed poker game lineup at Pokerstars. This is sure to be a very popular game in the long run, especially for Stud poker fans. It combines the three main Stud poker variants, Seven Card Stud, Razz Poker and Stud 8/b. Each game will be played for six hands before moving on to the next rotation. Triple Stud is basically what you get when you remove Hold'em and Omaha HL from H.O.R.S.E poker, a popular mixed game. This will certainly be big news for Stud enthusiasts since Triple Stud Poker is essentially a mixed poker game just for them. Poker Stars is the Stud poker capital of the world, based on ring table traffic and tournament availability and traffic. So it only makes sense that they would offer the ultimate mixed game for Stud fans. Some of the best 7 Card Stud players in the world call Pokerstars home, you'll likely see them playing Triple Stud on a regular basis. 7 Card Stud Rules: 7 Card Stud is the easiest of the three games to learn. All three Stud games use antes instead of blinds. At the beginning of the game each player will put in an ante, usually 10% of the table's small bet. All three Stud poker games use the same dealing format so I will just list it here once. After antes are placed in the pot each player will receive two hole cards and one upcard. In 7 Card Stud the player with the lowest upcard will be forced to put in a forced bet, usually 50% of the table's small bet. The betting will then go around the table clockwise. The dealer will then deal each player another upcard, followed by another round of betting. This will happen two more times, giving each player 4 upcards and two hole cards. The final card will be dealt as a hole card and there will be more betting. In Seven Card Stud the player with the best 5 card hand will win the entire pot. Razz Poker Rules: Razz Poker will likely be the hardest game to master in Triple Stud poker. It uses the same format mentioned above with a couple of differences. After the initial deal the player with the highest upcard will be forced to put the "bring-in" in the pot. The other difference is the objective. In Razz poker you want the lowest hand possible. There is no requirement, four eights will beat four nines. 7 Card Stud Hi/Lo Rules: It is like a cross between regular Stud and Razz. The objective is to get the lowest hand possible or the highest. You can scoop both pots by having the lowest and the highest. A good hand for "scooping" would be something like A-A-2-4-5-6-6. This gives you two pair and a very strong low hand. Straights and flushes do not count against you as far as the low hand goes and will work for you in the high hand so a "wheel" (A2345) is one of the most sought after hands in Stud HL. This game has a requirement for the low hand, just like Omaha HL. Your low hand has to be 8 or less. [h=3]Interchangeable Triple Stud Strategies[/h]The three Stud poker games that make up Triple Stud each have many similarities. Some strategies will work for both Stud and Stud HL, while other will be successful in Stud HL and Razz. The only strategies that do not mesh are between Stud and Razz since the objectives are the complete opposite. The first strategy I want to discuss is hand selection. In Stud you'll want to play hands that consist of pairs, three to a straight and three to a flush, here are some examples:

    • Kh-Kd-Js
    • 4h-5s-6s
    • 3d-6d-Kd

    You should always play pocket pairs a little more aggressively in 7 Card Stud. This is because it is harder for the other players to put you on a hand and if you end up getting trips the other players will assume you only have two pair. If you have a pocket pair and are betting and later pair up on your first upcard the other players will assume you caught trips.For the 7 Card Stud Hi/Lo rotation in Triple Stud poker you should use the tips I mentioned above in addition to the following strategies. ASs far as hand selection goes you will want to play any three cards under 8. A very good Stud HL hand consists of three cards under eight that are suited or consecutive, such as 2h-3-4h or Ah-5h-6h. These hand are always worth a raise.In Razz Poker you will basically be looking for the low hand mentioned above but you will also be basing your plays on the other player's visible cards. There is no requirement so a hand like 2h-5s-9d would be worth playing if the other players upcard is a 9 or higher. Position at the table is also very important. Bluffing after the initial deal is very common in Razz and it is usually based on what cards are showing on the table, with little thought given to the hole cards.
