Looking for a math book for hold\'em
I'm looking for a math book for hold em. I have read statistics and probability theory (don't know if that are the correct names) at the university. Din't like it much before I started to play poker [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].
I'm looking for a book shows how all the calculations are made that can be done for poker especially hold'em. |

Never read it, but Mike Petriv's Hold'em odds book should do the trick.

There's a book called the mathematics of poker by Bill Chen and some others. I haven't read it, but I intend to look at it.

Any idea where it's available? edit: a google search indicates that the other authors are Jerrod Ankenman & Andy Latto. In Dec. 2003, they were indicating it was due out "next year". |

Re: Looking for a math book for hold\'em
why not just theory of poker, small stakes hold em, or holdem for advanced players?
