Download or read book Harrington on Modern Tournament Poker written by Dan Harrington and published by Two Plus Two Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2014-05-08 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last ten years, the enormous growth of interest in poker and poker tournaments has led to an intense focus on the theory of tournament poker. The result was a re-examination of old ideas and the introduction of many new ones. The fundamentals of no-limit hold em did not change, but the game was revealed to have more depth than many older players could have anticipated. As a result, no-limit hold em tournament play has evolved into a newer, tougher, faster game, and good players have had to evolve to keep up. In Harrington on Modern Tournament Poker, Dan Harrington takes a fresh look at the world of no-limit hold em tournaments. He explains how the game is currently played, and what you ll have to do to be a successful tournament player in 2013 and beyond. The topics examined include how to play different hand types preflop, when to 3-bet and 4-bet, how to analyze the flop, turn, and river, and how to size your bets. Dan also explains how to adjust your strategy as your stack size grows and shrinks, and how to handle the new breed of super-aggressive players that you ll meet at the table (and, if you want, how to play that way yourself). Dan Harrington won the Gold Bracelet and the World Champion Title at the Main Event of the 1995 World Series of Poker. And he was the only player in recent history to make the final table in back-to-back years 2003 and 2004 considered by cognoscenti to be the greatest accomplishment in WSOP history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is aimed at poker players who play tournaments for a living and are already aware of how Texas No Limit Hold'em Tournaments are played.

The players that will keep learning will have an edge over the ever toughening competition of tournament poker pros. This is part of a series and is the first volume. How is this book different than the average Texas No Limit Hold'em Tournament Books? 1. This book features secrets from the turtle traders program, where ordinary people were given a two week course and collectively ended up making 100 million dollars for Richard Dennis, who himself had amassed over 200 million dollars from a reportedly borrowed 1600 dollars. Poker is essentially very similar to trading and most poker tournament players will learn a lot of new secrets to be +EV. 2. In today's environment of increasing costs and decreasing payouts and ever competitive field of tourney players, it pays to learn that the correct strategy of tournament is survival and not maximizing expected value. 3. Many tournament players will make the mistake of having an M ratio of 200 and pushing all in on the very first hand of a big buy-in tournament like a 10,000$ tournament, which is bad strategy. Apart from this if you are the chip leader at a table it pays to try to retain the chip leader status rather than pushing expected value. 4. Live Poker Tells - These are extremely important and most players miss a huge amount of information, which could save them in difficult situations. Learn to identify fear and greed in the actions of the players. 5. Tactics - Learn the tactics to pyramid your tournament wins and get lucky on a big tournament. 6. Instincts - Like Doyle Brunson put it poker players exhibit ESP, in this book I tell you of the million dollar hand of Jonathan Duhamel which was -EV but he ended up winning over 8 million dollars in the tournament and becoming a household name. 7. This isn't going to be yet another poker book that you will never be able to finish. All the advice is to the point and concise, making this book extremely small and yet extremely valuable. 8. The advice in this book is also for cash game players, and cash game players will learn a lot from the advice of the legendary turtle traders program, I believe these secrets have never ever been extrapolated to poker in any poker book yet written. 9.

Download or read book Poker Games Guide Texas Hold em Poker written by Nicolae Sfetcu and published by Nicolae Sfetcu. This book was released on 2016-11-07 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an introduction to the poker game, emphasizing on the Texas Hold 'em Poker, the betting structure, poker variants, poker strategy and specific poker tournaments. The popularity of poker (mainly the no-limit Texas hold'em) reached an unprecedented peak in the 2000s. This "poker boom" is attributed to several factors: the invention of online poker, the television broadcast tournaments (with miniature cameras revealing the cards), the presentation of the online poker sites in television commercials, and victory in 2003 of Chris Moneymaker at the World Series of Poker. Not only the public can now follow the actions of the tournaments on television, turning this game in the sporting spectacle, but it can also be played directly from home. The spread of tournaments such as the World Series of Poker and the World Poker Tour created a strong following among television program providers by cable or satellite. Because of the hype, professional players have become celebrities, with many fans around the world participating in tournaments in the hope of being confronted with these celebrities. Poker is played in many variations but there are three large families. They differ firstly by the way of distribution of playing cards. Cards can be shared by all players or private for each player. They can also be closed (visible only by the owner of cards) or open (visible to all). There are also differences in the game base on stakes. The winning hands can be high, low or both (high/low). In some embodiments where poker is played high and low hands, certain conditions are imposed on low hands. For example, a player's hand can not contain card over eight (eight or better), or aces can count only as high card (deuce to seven). Poker is a microcosm of all we admire and disdain about capitalism and democracy. It can be rough-hewn or polished, warm or cold, charitable and caring or hard and impersonal. It is fickle and elusive, but ultimately it is fair, and right, and just. -- Lou Krieger
