Default Beginner leaks

Hey guys. New to stud 8/b. Competent (opinions vary) at omaha 8/b. What do you think the biggest leaks are for a newb at the game (who already understands the 8/b part)?

So far, the ones I am aware of based on taking other people's chips are:

Betting weak highs into obvious lows (avoiding being freerolled)
Knocking out the low draws when you have the nuts for high when it looks like someone already made low.
Playing goofy hands.
Not respecting raises.
Betting to knock out calling stations.
Not looking at everyone else's upcards and the folded upcards.
Not avoiding playing pots with the (rare) tight player who doesn't give action when you catch up.
Playing good looking 3rd street hands when possible better hands are behind you.

Anything else I'm missing that is specific to stud 8/b?
