Hi guys
like most people these days, I started off my poker journey with hold'em and after some experience with that and readings some basic strategy guides have some idea of what hands are playable in different situations preflop.
I was wondering what characteristics a playable hand in stud would have (assuming 8 player table)
I am assuming the following are good:
large pairs/trips
3 of the same suit (especially with the ace + with few of that suit showing in opponent's up cards)
3 connected cards, especially when high/double/tripled suited.
In my (very limited) experience, I get hands like this fairly rarely.
If someone could help me out with some pointers it would be greatly appreciated
