Not in the same sense as with blackjack, but you can keep track of public cards to determine odds of a card appearing. For example, if you have one king in hand and there is one on the flop, it’s unlikely that 1 of the next 2 cards will be a king, so counting on it for a winning hand is a bad bet.

You don’t, you make a best guess and even then you can pretend you have a great hand. That’s why it’s gambling

In 7-stud having card memory is important because there are no common cards. There’s a famous scene in Rounders where Matt Damon’s character comes in a reads the “Judge’s Game” cold and mentions that one of the players had folded a card that was necessary for one of the players to win (I think the one that was bluffing), securing his clerkship. Good scene
