How to practice

  1. Start in Practice with hints on. Watch the right play for a few dozen hands and notice the pattern.
  2. Turn hints off. Make each call yourself and check the grade after.
  3. Count points out loud. Two cards need 2, three cards need 3, four cards need 4 for a 1x raise.
  4. Look for draws. On 4th and 5th street, check for suited cards and runs before you count points.
  5. Try High Score. When the calls feel automatic, play 40 hands for a spot on the Top 25.

What the grade checks

On 3rd street, the grade checks your fold or raise against pairs, points and 6-5 suited. On 4th and 5th street, it checks against made hands, flush and straight draws, and points. A 2x raise is always graded as a miss, because the best play raises 1x or 3x. So is a 1x raise on a hand that already pays or pushes.

Why practice with a grade

Results don't teach you much in this game. You can raise 1x on Q♥3♠ correctly and watch it miss. You can fold 10♣4♦ correctly and see the board give you a pair of 10s. Over a few hands, right and wrong look the same. A grade on the decision shows you what is correct, whatever the cards do.

What correct play is worth

With the best play, the house edge is 4.91% of the Ante. That is the floor: every mistake adds to it. Playing too many hands and raising too small on paying hands are the two most common. Mississippi Stud odds.
