Gain the mathematical edge on your Texas Hold’em game. This invaluable guide and reference book simplifies the mathematical probabilities of Texas Hold’em into easy-to-interpret playing strategies and decision-making tables so that the player can make wise decisions on how to play their hand without it being necessary to become a math whiz. Designed as a practical guide for the Texas Hold’em player, as well as a research thesis for math enthusiasts, this book gives sound mathematical advice on how to play your best game. The beginner to advanced Texas Hold’em players will learn how to judge the strength of their hand against the potential strength of an opponent’s hand from a mathematical perspective. Then, using pre-calculated probability tables, reference expected results to give insight into how to best play their hand during each round. Math enthusiasts will be introduced to a new and advanced model that computes poker probabilities more accurately. This new model considers the probabilities that an out (a card needed to make or improve their hand) remains within the deck, was dealt to another player, or serves as a burn (discarded) card. This informative book introduces the reader to the basics of Texas Hold’em poker, hand derivations, the effects of a depleted deck, how to pick your best pocket hands, and how to play your hand during each round using sound probability analysis.
