Im guessing he had a low draw and was tilting so he called 7th.

It is a very different game from omaha but I like it a lot, it is a pretty complex game and requires good reading skills, but it is much less of a bluff game then any other game

I have liked Stud in all its forms sice the first time i played it. Like TLR said, its very complex. It seems simple in the beginning and some of it is fairly straight foward. However, you soon come to find that it takes a lot of concentration, reading skills and attention to detail.

At micro stakes the big mistakes come when players play bad starting hands, chase weak draws and make bad calls. Fish tend to leak money by routinely calling one or two streets too many. Just like all poker...lol.

Starting hands are very important because so many hands go to showdown. You dont want to start behind, and if you dont have a good hand or a very good draw, you want to get out early before the expensive streets.
