nits

That's what the good players are...nits in stud/8.  It's how you need to play in order to win at this game.  It's not the personality of the NLHE player.  So it should be a winning approach.  Let's track our results over time.  First game was last night...80 players paying 8...my finish 16th.

Playable starting hands are very limited:
3 cards 8 or lower that can make a straight with straight cards live.
AA with a low card that can make a straight.
KK or QQ with a straight flush card...all needed fills live.

With 4 exceptions, I stuck to the above.  My only variance was when it got down to a 6 person table.  Granted it is being a real nit but my belief is it's a winning combination.
