Great video ceegee- concise.

It seems like super stud 8 is swiftly taking over the live mix games. Obviously the big pairs are rarely playable in super stud 8.

Do you have any comments off the top of your head regarding big pairs in super?

I believe big pairs go way down in value in super stud 8. A lot of pots go multiway in super and big pairs play terribly, especially when the chance of someone having aces wired, trips, and 3 to low flushes goes way up. I remember only playing big pairs in steal situations or defending bring-ins if it was high card bring-in.

Hi! Great video, great stuff. Very good info. Really like the format of hypothetical situations with changing the door cards. Look forward to more like this!

Hi CeeGee: 20:00, with the Q door card. Can't we just 2 bet our whole range there even if the 5s is a tight player, wouldn't that just be easier and we don't have to worry about flatting vs 2 betting.

25:30: you say that when in middle position, and 5s completes, you will look at his tendencies, plus the threat of players coming into pot behind, over cards behind, that it's almost always a fold. But then earlier you also said that in middle position, if 5s opens, you will most likely 2 bet even with A door card behind you. Contradicting??
