Analytical No-Limit Hold 'em: Crushing Mid-Stakes Short-Handed Games

Poker has changed immensely in the last few years. While once played only in casinos and home-games, it's now immensely popular on the Internet and has taken on a completely different aspect in terms of winning strategy.

Analytical No Limit Hold'em provides the tools and theory needed for tough mid-stakes short-handed games, specifically those played online. It examines the latest techniques and strategies used by many of today's top players, and explains what strategic approaches are needed to be successful.

Topics include three-betting, exploiting weak players, beating short-stackers, board texture, optimal bluffing frequencies, and an in-depth review of ranges including range structure, polarized ranges, and range balance. In addition, the text examines hand-reading (by assigning players perceived ranges) and shows ways to manipulate your image to influence your opponents' strategy. Analytical No-Limit Hold'em also looks at tracking programs and heads-up displays, and includes a chapter on computer security.
