Equivalents of SirCuddles' guide for other games?

Simple question - are there any equivalents of the 'complete guide to beating the micros' for other games? I'm particularly interested in PLO, stud high and 2-7 single draw. Books are also good (I'm reading Jeff Hwang's books and Tri Nguyen's NLHE to PLO books), but I prefer free resources, naturally.

Cheers.

What games are you looking to learn? I've already said this once but sir cuddle's guide is a bit basic and must be read with a grain of salt.

DC videos in general are very good for all games because they have both a wide selection and very absorbable material, though some other sites may have better more specific material at times.

Re: Equivalents of SirCuddles' guide for other games?

I'm looking in particular to learn PLO, stud high and 2-7 single draw. Aye, but I'm a complete novice at all of them and don't know basic strategy - I can build on that once I understand it.

I can't afford DC I'm afraid.

They have a free trial do they not? They are definitely worth the money. I would say that if your bankroll is so small that you can't afford them you should be working on NLHE fundamentals. While you don't HAVE to move from NLHE into other games, there's a wealth of material for this transition so it's probably more effective to learn basics from NLHE (pot odds, fundamental theories, etc) and move into other games.

Use the free trial - Download as many vid series as possible = win

If you cant download the vids for the trial (Not sure if its allowed), then get a months subscription and spend a couple of days downloading a load of vids. For $25, you do get more than enough to last you.

cardrunners is definitely good. But just read a basic book to get the understandings and read the PLO stickies to grasp basic concepts. Should be based on experience and slowly studying more as time goes on to get the complete understanding of it.
