Re: foxwoods 75/150 stud question
In my experience you are better of sticking to playing two tables of 30/60 stud online than playing 75/150 stud live, even in the very soft Taj games, if all you are interested in is making money. Personally, I make about double per hour online than I do playing the 75 game at Taj. Keep in mind that I am not as good at live play (tells, staying alert, etc.) as someone life Jeffage, so if you specialize in live play your'd probably do better at the 75 game. Also, I don't play optimally in the live 75 games because I have trouble adjusting to the uber-passive play (especially w/ draws). I suspect that the few full time pros in the Taj 75 game that are there make about 1 big bet an hour (I make a little less than half that).
Another note, Mike Emery told me that he used to play regularly in the 75/150 Taj games, and that he has stopped because he makes more money online playing 30/60 holdem.
Therefore, I don't think it is worth your time to learn stud, unless you live around AC and would be able to play in games higher than 75/150.
