Third street scoop potential

Stud8 rewards hands that can win high and low. Three low cards to a wheel/flush, or high pair with low cards, are the core.

Night filter: if the hand can't make a wheel-ish low OR a strong high, fold more third streets. Pretty paint without a plan is Stud8 poison.

Complete with scoop potential. High-only paint vs low boards → fold more.
