I have been playing some micro limit Stud 8 and the advice seems to be really good.

Its bad advice if your playing Stud 8 with a qualifier, hi/low split without a qualifier is an antiquated game that is now only played in the Bellagio mix game and nowhere else (I believe it used to be played at Casino Arizona's mix, but they switched to Stud 8 as well).

Your best bets for learning about S8 is Raz Z's high/low split book and Super System II's S8/b chapter written by Tod Brunson - one of the more solid sections of the book (its lacking a bit, but its solid none the less). I recommend that you read both, Tod's chapter first to get the basic concepts down pat, then Ray Z's book to understand the finer nuances of the game.

Man, it seems like you just don't believe me. Stud hi-lo no qualifier ("any-any stud" in local parlance) is still played regularly in the 75-150 mix at Casino Arizona. This is because the game is played dealer's choice, with the game changing every half-hour, and many of the players enjoy any-any stud.

I agree with what you said about books to read.
