Book excerpt: For decades, the highest level of poker have been dominated by players who have learned the game by playing it, road gamblers' who have cultivated intuition for the game and are adept at reading other players' hands from betting patterns and physical tells. Over the last five to ten years, a whole new breed has risen to prominence within the poker community. Applying the tools of computer science and mathematics to poker and sharing the information across the Internet, these players have challenged many of the assumptions that underlay traditional approaches to the game.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hello my name is Bob and welcome to my book. In this book I will be telling you all of my greatest secrets that I have learnt in casinos dealing to the players from 1/2 USD to the highest stakes imaginable. The topics of the book that I will cover are as follows 1.Developing a correct mindset for poker In this chapter I will detail what should be the correct mindset of a poker player right from the initial stage of selecting a table, stakes, a game, the correct expectations, being aware of the transactions costs like rake and other expenditures, and more. This is crucial because most players today lack this information and set themselves up for failure and a cascade of losses. I will also be sharing several secrets for example when a player plays at a stake that is meaningless in form of money to him, he is already winning. And a player who is playing at a stake in which money means dearly to him he is already begun losing. The cause is when a person plays with a thing dear to him he is actually gambling and cannot play the game as skillfully if he had been playing at a stake that was unimportant. 2.The Truth About Casino Side Games You already know it but I will be sharing several secrets for example. When you play in casino side games for example Black Jack you can become tilted when you lose an amount significant to you and you can end up donating even more money, people have blown all their pay checks and tax refunds the same day due to tilt. Hence it is important to not go to casinos with your debit cards or credit cards, otherwise you can get in a gambling trap and lose a lot of money quickly. Casinos know that most people will quit after they go on a heater but will continue playing when losing, hence they can offer players free rooms, drinks and even food. 3.The Biggest Secret In this I will share with you what exactly takes to turn from a Fish to a Super Pro! 4.Tournament Secrets Ok most now already know the M Ratio and Q Ratio. Do you really know what it takes to be a consistent winner like a top WSOP money maker? 5.Pot Limit Omaha Secrets The secrets that I am going to tell you will prevent you from making a lot of mistakes and help you learn how the game should be played, how you can take advantage of the freerolls that are in this game. 6.No Limit Hold'em Secrets Do you as a player always put money when you are ahead and your opponent is a 4 to 1 dog, if not then you are losing money. Still there is lot of hope for you because by learning these secrets you will be playing when you are way ahead, be avoiding the marginal situations and will be crushing the donks for thousands of dollars every month at your local casinos. Sounds fun? 7.Hand Reading and Constructing Ranges Like A Boss This is important Phil Hellmuth once said that he made 20 million dollars because of hand reading, he actually has made 20 million dollars and he does hand read. 8.Is Poker Gambling? The truth from a poker dealer!

Book excerpt: Poker star Dusty Schmidt presents his first book [¬" one that stands to shake up poker in the same way Moneyball did for baseball. Schmidt offers an inspiring look at how in just five years, he went from not knowing a thing about poker to netting a seven-figure annual income. Far from a mathematical or technological genius, Schmidt says what guides him through is a fundamental understanding of business. Treat Your Poker Like A Business provides a foundation upon which all poker will be evaluated in the future, and will help an entire generation of poker players evolve their games into empires. A consummate "grinder," Dusty Schmidt has played nearly 7 million hands of online poker over more than 10,000 hours during his five-year career. He's won over $3 million during that period, and has never experienced a losing month. In 2007, he achieved Poker Stars' SuperNova Elite status in just eight months while playing high-stakes cash games exclusively. Schmidt posted the world's highest win rate in both 5/10 NL and 10/20 NL in both 2007 and 2008. In a four-month period between Nov. 2007 and Feb. 2008, Schmidt won in excess of $600,000 in high-stakes cash games. He is now a highly respected instructor at Stoxpoker.com, and plays as high as 25/50 NL. As a young man, Schmidt was a top-ranked golfer. He broke two of Tiger Woods' junior records, and was the leading money winner on the Golden States Tour when, at age 23, he suffered a career-ending heart attack. Schmidt returned to golf in 2009, winning medalist honors in qualifying for the Oregon Amateur Championship. Later that year, Schmidt famously represented himself in federal court in his suit against the United States Golf Association, which controversially stripped him of his amateur status, in part due to his poker profession. Schmidt is now a volunteer assistant coach for the University of Oregon's men's golf team, working under his good friend, Head Coach Casey Martin. Schmidt is also a successful entrepreneur. He is part-owner of Stoxpoker.com and Imagine Media, and the creator of 10thGreen.com, the first social network for golfers. His story has been featured in Sports Illustrated, Card Player, Poker News, Golf Magazine, Fairways and Greens, Golf Week, Golf World and the Portland Oregonian, as well as on ESPN, cnn.com, wallstreetjournal.com, forbes.com, fortune.com, espn.com, golfdigest.com and golf.com, among many others. He recently founded the House of Cards Project, a philanthropic effort to provide food and shelter to disadvantaged families. His life story will be told in the book [¬Raise: The Impossibly True Tale of Dusty Schmidt, [¬? to be released later in 2010. He lives in Portland, Ore., with his wife, Nicole, and daughter, Lennon.

Book excerpt: We all know that money won is twice as sweet as money earned, and there are plenty of books that will help you if you want to mortgage the house to take on the $30-$60 table at the Mirage or the Taj Mahal; but most of us are looking for a friendlier species of the game, a chance to test our luck in the enjoyable company of friends, and, if we are favored with good fortune and they are not, to really, really rub their noses in it. Dealer's Choice is the ultimate guide to the world of low stakes poker, where fun and bragging rights count as least as much as the final tally. Starting with the elementary principles every beginner will need to know before swimming with the sharks-betting, bluffing, and the hierarchy of hand values-Dealer's Choice also includes invaluable tips on how to host the perfect poker evening (the relative merits of chips versus coins, what food to serve) as well as fascinating sidebars (great poker hands in cinema, trivia, unspoken laws of the game) and hilarious profiles of archetypal poker characters-the kinds of oddball one is bound to encounter sooner or later across the green felt. Every conceivable variety of poker is discussed in each of its variants, from established favorites like Baseball and Follow the Queen to truly esoteric mutations of the authors' own invention such as Frankenstein, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, and Hamlet (i.e., Jacks are low, Queens are wild, Kings dead). Renowned illustrator Phil Foglio has enlivened the text with spectacular line drawings. With worldwide interest in poker at unprecedented peak, Dealer's Choice gives casual players the chance to re-create, right in their living rooms, the excitement of the World Series of Poker... except without the five million dollar jackpot-but pizza and beer aren't bad either.
