Download or read book Exploitative Play in Live Poker written by Alexander Fitzgerald and published by D&B Publishing. This book was released on 2018-11-19 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many poker players can make good decisions at the table with a reasonable frequency. Nevertheless, there are numerous situations where even very experienced players behave in predictable ways. These deeply-ingrained habits lead them to make mistakes. The problem is that these situations won’t often arise at the table by chance – you have to make them happen. Exploitative Play in Live Poker is a ground-breaking work that teaches you how to create the circumstances where your opponents will be likely to blunder and how to exploit them when they do. To achieve this you will need to put to one side starting hand charts, balance and GTO (Game Theory Optimal) play. Instead you will incorporate new concepts that may well place you outside your comfort zone. However, your style will now be forcing the other players at the table outside of their comfort zone and, unlike you, they won’t know how to adapt. Learn how to: Counter the auto-continuation-bettorDevelop a powerful donk-betting strategyUse the overbet, the check-raise and the three-barrel effectively As well as being a highly successful player, Alex Fitzgerald runs a poker consultancy that serves more than 1,000 professional poker players in 60 countries. As part of this work, he has very likely trawled through more hand history databases than anyone else. This gives him a unique insight into how players really play, especially when placed under pressure and forced into unfamiliar situations.

Download or read book The Intelligent Poker Player written by Philip Newall and published by Two Plus Two Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2011-04-30 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As poker theory develops, the field is becoming more abstruse and mathematical; gradually becoming less accessible to the layperson. The Intelligent Poker Player by Philip Newall aims to reverse this trend by presenting a cohesive and sophisticated method of play in plain English. This approach, in principle, can be used to analyze any form of poker, although this book mainly shows applications in the popular forms of limit and no-limit hold 'em. The Intelligent Poker Player is also the first book to discuss the emergent field of artificial poker intelligence - otherwise known as poker robots. The best computers are capable of playing heads-up limit hold 'em at a world class level, and this book deconstructs some interesting features of their play. And finally, professional poker is a risky career choice. So in addition to the strategy chapters which include topics such as ôInformation Hiding,ö ôMiddle Game Concepts,ö and ôNo-Limit Hold 'em: Applications and Extensions,ö the author will show how to mitigate avoidable risks with topics such as ôBankroll Management and Shot Selection,ö ôRisk Preferences,ö ôPsychological Biases,ö ôInvesting,ö and ôPredicting Future Poker Returns.ö Book jacket.

Download or read book Poker s 1 written by Ed Miller and published by . This book was released on 2014-03-15 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elite poker players aren't like the rest of us. Sure, they play in huge games where tens of thousands of dollars can move in the blink of an eye. But that's not the only difference. Elite players play and think about the game in a completely different way from everyone else. If you want to raise your game to their level, it's not just a matter of getting a little better at what you already do. The honest truth is that the way 99% of poker players approach the game is fundamentally flawed. You will never be able to crack the top 1% until you know what they know. There's one big secret to the game that nearly every elite player knows, yet almost no one else understands. It's an open secret-no one is hiding it. Elite players talk about it sometimes in videos and articles. Nevertheless, top players have known this secret for years, yet still almost no one else does. Poker's 1% seeks to change that. It bridges that gap between the elite players and everyone else. It promises that as long as you are willing to put in the work, you too have a shot to reach the top. Poker's 1% teaches a way of thinking about how you play, a way to unify every hand you've ever played and ever will play into one single, overarching strategy. The goal is that you will have one big "aha" moment, the moment where you finally "get" this game. After that, it's just fine tuning. The more you fine tune your strategy, the more you win, and the higher you can go. Poker's 1% gives you a unique window into the secrets of the world's best players. It shows you what you've been doing wrong and how to fix it. And, most importantly, it guides you in a straightforward way along the path from average player to elite.

Download or read book The Statistics of Poker written by Steve Selbrede and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-06-01 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 3rd Edition analyzes six million hand histories to identify the most profitable online No Limit Hold'em poker strategies, (an increase from 2 million in the 2nd edition). The new edition also includes additional new content. These "optimal" strategies are verified for stakes between NL10 ($0.05/$0.10) and NL200 ($1.00/$2.00) full ring online games. Despite the title, this book is not really a mathematics book, though it is certainly statistical behind the curtain. It assumes that the reader is already familiar with No Limit Hold'em and much of the poker jargon that goes with it. It does not teach you how to play basic NLH. The hope is that you will recognize the basic truths revealed by the analysis and be inspired to incorporate them into your own game.

Book excerpt: My biggest strength at the poker table is my ability to adapt in real time to my opponents. Exploitive No Limit Holdem was written not just to help you understand advanced NLHE theory, but more importantly to help you apply that knowledge exploitively at the poker table. I focus more on the attacking side of poker than the defending side. In many ways I feel like a good defense will come naturally for those who have a good offense. If you understand how and why you are targeting an opponent, you will also notice when you are the mark. When you finish reading this book I am confident that you will be a better player. Wherever possible I try to give you real world examples of the concepts I am discussing. Theory without applications is useless, and I recognize that my readers need more than just theory to help them improve. Included in Exploitive No Limit Holdem is an extensive discussion of how to improve you red line, the mental game, math, expected value, game theory, and risk management. Very little in poker is “solved” and that makes teaching the game challenging. Exploitive No Limit Holdem focuses not only on how to fix leaks in your game and attack opponents’ weaknesses, but also on how you can keep growing as a player after reading this book. Exploitive No Limit Holdem can help you deepen your understanding of No Limit Holdem, which will enable you to adapt and stay profitable in a dynamic and rapidly changing industry like poker.
