I played almost entirely 6 card stud ante and pot limit,no bring in , high card had option to bet. heads up almost entirely,2 cards down and bet and then 4 up,1 at a time. my dad was a pro and he took my money but in turn i ended up winning a lot from other people.i played from 1969-1978 and then stopped poker almost entirely until 3 years ago online poker.holdem was all new to me.that game of 6 stud hu is almost never played anymore.in that game if u got pocket aces they were rarely beat. an ace high would often win. 6 card is totally different than 7 card. strait and flushes r to to get, but ive adapted to the popular games
