Professional Hold'em Play by Play

When Mike Caro, the world's foremost authority on poker theory, statistics, and psychology, writes a book on hold'em, the poker world takes notice. And it should: Caro is the godfather of modern poker theory and his seminal work has influenced every single professional player today including Doyle Brunson, who leans on Caro for technical advice. This groundbreaking work pushes the envelope for practical hold'em play and winning success. Powerful advice that is clearly written and hard-hitting covers every aspect of hold'em for professional and aspiring professional play: playing the blinds (big and small), the button, early and middle position, playing small stacks and large, how to bet small pairs, big pairs, pocket rockets, overcards, straight and flush draws, how hand values change, how to change speeds, betting strategies, when to fold, and how to make the best percentage plays in every situation. Packed with psychology, advice on reading opponents, advanced moves, professional techniques, and much, much more, this book is a complete course on winning money at hold'em cash games. Special sections on internet poker and no-limit tournaments make this treatise the new bible on winning at hold'em poker.
