Mastering No-Limit Hold'em will retail at $24.95 but until the publication date we're offering it at the special price of $17.50 plus shipping. You can click here to get details or to order.

Because of television, the game of choice for most new poker players is no-limit Hold'em. This has led to changes in the game. With so many players trying to emulate their TV heroes, they tend to play too many weak hands, call too many bets with marginal to poor holdings, and try to make too many big bluffs. Today's skilled player must learn to adapt to these changes in this complex game.

This book covers all aspects of the smaller, fixed buy-in, no-limit hold'em games from understanding your opponents to learning about pot odds. Included are topics seldom written about such as finding the proper amount to bet, how to manage your mental game, bankroll considerations, and how to beat the rake. Also introduced is "The Matrix Theory" a unique tool for understanding just what hands you should play and how they should be played depending on a matrix of considerations few think about.

If you are looking for the most comprehensive guide to fixed buy-in cash games, you need this book!

I'll wait for a couple of positive reviews before throwing down $17.50. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Chuck,

Does the date at which we preorder affect the order in which they are shipped out? In other words, the earlier I place my preorder, will I get my copy closer to the publication date?

Not sure about Harker, but Fox writes articles for www.thepokerforum.com.

However, it appears most of his articles are about Omaha.

Short answer: it won't make much difference as long as you place the order prior to the arrival of books at our warehouse.

Longer answer: A few days before we expect the books to arrive at our warehouse in Kansas we'll process all outstanding orders so that they will ship the day that they come in. (This is also what we do when, say, Getting Started in Hold'em, is due.) People who get their order in prior to the date we do that processing will get the books (somewhat) faster than those who get their order in after that date.

Gentlemen,

Here is an interesting quote from Fox's article 'Laissez les bons temps rouler':


"I will admit that I’m not the world’s greatest Texas Hold’em player. However, many of my opponents in that game had no clue whatsoever of what they were doing."
R.Fox


Hopefully his partner is the HE expert!

Also, I should add that some of his Omaha articles provide good insights/hand analyses.

Cheers,
the Real Macoy
