{"product_id":"9781886070257","title":"The Mathematics of Poker","description":"Thirty years ago the bond and option markets were dominated by traders who had learned their craft by experience. By the mid-1990s the old school grizzled traders had been replaced by a new breed of quantitative analysts, applying mathematics to the \"art\" of trading and making of it a science. A similar phenomenon is happening in poker. The grizzled \"road gamblers\" are being replaced by a new generation of players who have challenged many of die assumptions that underlie traditional approaches to the game. One of the most important features of this new approach is a reliance on quantitative analysis and the application of mathematics to the game. This book provides an introduction to quantitative techniques as applied to poker and to a branch of mathematics that is particularly applicable to poker, game theory, in a manner that makes seemingly difficult topics accessible to players without a strong mathematical background.
