Re: Ace on the river
I know that but wtf what can i do?
[ QUOTE ] Chapter 2-- "The Poker Society" A very brief synopsis of the types of people you will run into in a B&M casino. This did not give me any new information. Chapter 3-- "How to Behave in Poker Society" Nothing of value here. Basically says do not be a whiner when you get outdrawn and etc. Chapter 5-- "Attitude of a Poker Player" This chapter attempts to ask you 10 questions about your attitude and then tries to explain what your answers may mean. Very short chapter. Chapter 6-- "Traits of Winning Poker Players" 25 cliches and a brief summary which attempt to explain what traits winning poker players have. Chapter 7-- "Psychology of Gambling" This chapter tries to characterize the types of gamblers which has been covered in other books. Again, a VERY short chapter with hardly any content. Chapter 19-- "Mathematics of Poker" This chapters starts the section of AVANCED PLAY. Here is direct quote from page 146: "It will occasionally be helpful if you can count the number of outs you have and are able to figure out pot odds in simple situations. In limit poker, you will generally cointinue on in a hand when you have eight outs or more." This chapter is about 8 pages long (again that is not taking into account the high glossy photos) and its very high level. Not much in way of details. He states on page 147, that if you have 14 outs on the flop then you are a slight favorite in holdem. He explains the Martingale strategy. Chapter 20-- "Game Theory" There is about one nugget of useful information in this chapter. I will let you find it...think of it as a treasure hunt. Chapter 23-- Money Management" discusses reasons for min and max buyin strategies. Not much content. Chapter 25-- "Play Lessons" Now this chapter has some meat to it. It presents hands from different forms of poker and the thinking process involved in each one. This is very good but if you only play NL then there are only couple of hands that are reviewed at this form of poker. [/ QUOTE ] Looks like interesting chapter but i sounds like it is nothing speciell in them only 1-5 pages and photos? |
