Here's why stud rewards the good player more than he:

1) Exposed cards give you more information to work with in reading hands. Simply being able to remember what's out gives you an edge over some players!

2. Extra round of betting favors the good player in two ways: 1. It gives you better implied odds to limp in early and mix it up. 2 It gives you one more street to extract full value from bad players.

The big edge that hold'em has is that it's the game of choice for almost all the new/fishy players
