Below is a short extract from ebook:
This new edition of The Science of Poker is divided into five parts. A brief
discussion of some important Poker concepts is presented in the first part. The
second part deals with four-card Omaha High, the third part is devoted to Texas
Hold'em and the fourth part covers Seven-Card Stud. Finally the fifth part is
dedicated to the most popular online Poker tournaments, No-Limit Hold'em. Parts
Two, Three and Four contain comprehensive analyses of starting hands, odds and
probabilities. They include the new concept of Probability Coefficient, as well
as after flop play, for Omaha and Hold'em, and after third-street play for
Seven-Card Stud. Although the last chapters of Omaha and Hold'em are dedicated
to pot-limit games, I advise the owners of this book to read each part
thoroughly because the information presented in each chapter is pertinent to
both limit and pot-limit poker. Finally chapters Seventeen and Eighteen
incorporate a detailed playing strategy for No-Limit Hold'em tournaments
together with a full discussion of many actual hands. Appendix A, which deals
with the mathematics of probability, is included for the benefit of readers who
are interested in learning the basics of statistical calculations relevant to
poker. As you read this book, you will realise that it is not a thriller. It
will be obvious that you are reading a reference book. You cannot assimilate the
wealth of poker information at your disposal by reading the book once, unless
you are endowed with photographic memory. Do not, however, be intimidated by the
large number of simulated/calculated statistical data that were utilised in the
analyses of the many examples of contests between a wide range of poker hands. I
advise you to read the book more than once and to refer to the relevant
part/section every time you have had to make a tough decision during a playing
session.
