People probably make more blatent mistakes in hi/lo chasing for chops etc. That said hi/lo is a lower variance game because all chop games are lower variance then their hi variant. That said though hi/lo rakes a lot worst for this same reason.

I'd recommend playing 7 card stud hi starting out at least until higher levels. I am not sure where a good point to dip into hi/lo is but probably when the rake starts to cap frequently.

 Read the Chip Reese section on 7CS in S/S. Use it as your bible. Todd Brunson wrote a section on 7CS Hi-Lo in S/S 2 also, which is useful (but no where near as great as Chip's writeup from '78). Agree with yawwn about the rake too. I'd start playing the high variant then transition in to the hi-lo once you move up to mid stakes.
