Default Books on the mathematics of poker

I am trying to find a book or books exclusively on the math of poker. Iam looking for books that exclusivly talk in detail about odds, stats, expectation ect..ect. Most books I have read have sections or chapters on the subject but Iam looking for more detailed information.

Default Re: Books on the mathematics of poker

I have not finished reading it yet but have found it to be very detailed so far and fairly easy to understand It only refers to hold-em though. the book is written by Mike Petriv and is called "Hold 'em's odds book" hope this helps

Default Re: Books on the mathematics of poker

I am in the process of reading Sklansky's "Getting the Best of it" now. It is not just math but it is math heavy. Simple formulas on how to get your permutations, combinations, and the like. It is not a poker only book so there is some other info about other gambling too but it focuses on poker mainly.

I also read Sklansky's "Theroy of Poker" which I would also recommend. The two of them make a pretty good combination and have helped me more than any other books for my usual game.
