I've been playing low limit stud hi for about a year now. I've been trying to get better (only 1BB/100 not including rakeback), but stud conversation is hard to come by. I'm a regular lurker on the Stud forum at 2+2. Anyone in the Massachusetts area who's like to get together and talk theory and review HHs, hit me up. I play online once or twice a week.
