The Wizard's article really intrigued me, so I've been playing around with this game, and doing some back of the envelope calculations. Here's what I have so far:

1. At the start:

Buy an extra card when dealt: royal flush, straight flush, flush, straight, three of a kind, a 4-flush, or 4-straight.
Exchange three cards when dealt: AA or KK.
Bet when dealt: four of a kind, full house, two pair, any pair QQ-22.
Fold when dealt: AK or any other no pair with no 4-flush or 4-straight.

2. Then, after you buy an extra card or exchange three cards:

Bet with any pair or better, and fold any AK or worse.

3. Then, if the dealer doesn't qualify, if you have three of a kind or better, force the dealer to exchange a card, unless the dealer would be drawing to a 4-flush or 4-straight that if made would beat you.

-The fact that you can count a second scoring hand means that you should buy an extra card when you are dealt a made flush or straight.

-The fact that when you win the ante only pushes makes more of the worst qualifying hands unprofitable than in regular Caribbean stud, basically any AK.

-AA and KK are a lot more profitable than lower pairs, since they also collect if they hit an AK in the draw, and since it makes a big difference as far as winning percentage against the dealer's scope of qualifying hands.

-Two things in the above strategy that I thought were very close were (1) when you have three of a kind, whether to draw two or buy an extra card, and (2) whether to draw three with AK or fold it.

-Pairs QQ-22 and two pair don't improve often enough to justify paying an entire ante to draw or to buy an extra card.

I'd be interested in what the house edge is, and if anyone has any ideas on strategy that differ from the above.

Hello!

In fact, the strategy of giving the player an advantage over the casino is 16 sheets. I have the Russian version. We must play very accurately with no errors. Other mathematical errors price devour all advantages.

In 2004 Russian Poker in Russia and Europe would bring good profit, and no one even thought that there is a chance to play a plus. Now the situation has changed, but there are still many places where you can zarabytyvat playing in this poker
