Product Description

Review

"...most of the advice in this book is simply of very high quality - which is exactly the reason why I have chosen to rate this book an 8 (out of 10)" Rolf "Ace" Slotboom "Jacobs book is well worth reading, especially recommend for aspiring mid limit players". 8 out of 10 Tristan Steiger, poker-soft.com "Not only is the advice and thought process consistently good, but he asks the right questions. He probes the key areas where people lose most of their money, and his scoring system reflects the fact that he knows these are the most important areas. I give it 10/10." Ed Miller, noted poker authority and best-selling author.

Product Description

There are numerous variants of Poker but the most popular, both in cardrooms and on-line, is Limit Hold'em. There are literally thousands of tables permanently available on-line and anyone who wants a game can play anywhere in the world at any time.

The material is presented in a novel "test-yourself" format, which simulates live action play by inviting the reader to consider the best course of action at each stage of a hand. All features of the game are discussed within the hands and readers can assess their understanding by comparing their decisions with those of the experts.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb book for developing your limit skills, 19 Sep 2006

By	Splossy - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This book is excellent for aspiring Limit Hold'em players. You need to understand the game already to get much out of it but anyone with a few thousand hands and a grounding in poker theory fundamentals will benefit. The reason I say this is that you need to understand WHY you make certain plays for the advice to mean anything to you.

The book is primarily aimed at middle-limit online poker. As the author points out, you cannot just be a solid by-the-book player and win at middle limits - you need to mix your game up, be deceptive and play at your opponents' observable weaknesses. This book helps you do that. The main meat of the text is a series of hands played from pre-flop to the end. You are presented with your cards, position, profiles of opponents and hypothetical plays. You then decide what action to take at each stage, much of the right play is based on these opponent profiles (eg weak, passive, unimaginative). You are informed of what the author considers to be the right play and why. This is a good way of getting your mind to operate like a pro player - playing the player not just reacting to cards.

Because it is aimed a middle limit play, most hands get 2-3 handed at the flop (because good players know not to play weak hands). So I think this makes the book great for short-handed play - like 6max. Very low-limit full-ring play looks very different to this book with many more weak players calling so it's advice would need to be adapted accordingly.

4.0 out of 5 stars Identify and fix the leaks in your game, 31 Dec 2005

By	Mr. Kevin M. O'shaughnessy "xoskely10" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Not for beginners - this is aimed at players trying to move up from low limit games to middle limit games. As Byron writes that many poker books "make the assumption that all of your opponents are of identical skill or all play exactly the same game" but this book accounts for all the information in the game that you should be aware of. For me it has highlighted several areas of weakness in my game and will help me to improve.
