Question 1

What is the house edge in Mississippi Stud?

Accepted Answer

With exact optimal play the house edge is 4.9149% of the ante. The average total wager is 3.4836 antes, so the loss measured against everything wagered, the element of risk, is 1.4109%.

Question 2

How do you play Mississippi Stud?

Accepted Answer

You place an ante, then receive two cards, followed by three community cards revealed one at a time. Before each reveal you fold or bet 1x, 2x, or 3x your ante. Your best five-card hand is paid on the pay table. There is no dealer hand to beat.

Question 3

What is the basic Mississippi Stud strategy?

Accepted Answer

On the first decision, raise 3x with any pair, raise 1x with two medium-or-better cards, and fold the rest. On later streets, raise with made hands and strong draws and fold when the odds turn against you. Never bet 2x. Every wager pays at the same rate, so the best move is always the largest bet when betting more is good and the smallest bet, or a fold, when it is not.

Question 4

Is the Mississippi Stud trainer free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The trainer runs entirely in your browser with nothing to download, and it grades every decision against optimal play for free.
