Stud 8: Due to its position in the lineup, this game always comes around well into the tournament and some players will be approaching short-stack status by the time the first stud 8 round hits. Hitting the stud 8 round is also a signal that the game is about to change from the low-volatility of a split-pot game with an ante back to the high cost per round and quick pace of limit hold'em. If a player hasn't yet added significantly to his stack, this is pretty much the last level he can wait to hit a big hand. If I'm sitting on a stack of 1600 chips in the first stud 8 level where the ante is 15 chips (limits 80-160), I'm not feeling too much pressure to play a big pot the next chance I get. However, once the game changes back to hold'em, players are not only just facing higher blinds (50 and 100 with 100-200 limits), they're facing blinds that will come around much more quickly due to the faster pace of the game. That 1600 chips is suddenly a lot less powerful. The hold'em rounds are by far the most expensive ones to play in H.O.R.S.E., especially later in the tournament. As the first stud 8 round is drawing to a close, think about where your stack will be at once hold'em hits again, and make moves accordingly. Though H.O.R.S.E. tournaments can be a huge mental challenge, they are also both incredibly juicy and a lot of fun. Practice your weaker games at low limits, then think about giving a tournament a whirl. I can personally recommend the $24+2 $4,000 Guarantees that run each night on Full Tilt and the $11 H.O.R.S.E. MTTs on Poker Stars as great places to start. ; free stripp poker bay!!!  |
