Hi,
I have been a long time lurker but never decided to register and post until today. I have been playing LLHE for about a year and I can safely say that I am holding my own in 2-4 and 3-6 (close to 1BB/hr in about 1000 hrs of play in a casino atmosphere). I only own 3 books - Jones' which was my primer, HPAP and TOP. I have a good grasp of the game like - good starting hands by position, pot odds, and a pretty decent post flop play. Although I have a good math background with some knowledge of statistics, I am too lazy do spend my time to do all the calculations and would rather memorize something that is readily available. That is, I don't believe in re-inventing the wheel.
I am just preparing to step up to a 5-10 or 6-12 and I think it is high time to learn about "EV". I have read that certain plays have +EV or -EV but have not read anything on how to determine this. Is this subject covered in any of the other Sklansky/Malmuth books or any other source?
Thank you for your help.
