You might have thought online poker it would’ve happened before now. I mean, it was bound to have been done sooner or later. But who could have predicted that it would take so many years for someone let alone these someone to write the definitive how to guide to no-limit hold-em?

Since it’s always been associated with the most famous gambles playing games for the highest stakes in poker’s biggest games, no-limit hold’em has traditionally been known as the Rolls Royce of holdem Poker games. Until recently, however, virtually all poker games played in the United States have been limit poker, where the size of one’s bet is pre-established. No-limit is more complicated because, in addition to deciding whethers to bet or raise, there’s the added consideration of exactly how much gaming money to push into the pot.

Today, thanks to technology and the media, poker is booming! More than a million people watch poker on television each week, while the same number of folks are playing daily on the Internet, in poker card rooms and in home games. Now no-limit Hold’em is being spread (that’s poker speak for “ games are being dealt”) at all levels, even the smallest ones. It simply stands to reason that this rising interest is coming from new, inexperienced players who are spearheading a resurgence in a fun and exciting pastime that, in the words of my son, is “as old-school as they come.”

Warning: Watching televised tournaments is not how you learn to win! Those tournaments you see with their huge stakes and high antes are short-handed bluffing games. They definitely are not the norm. there should be a warning that flashes across the screen during televised events: “Beginners beware do not try this at home!” That alone is a good enough reason to invest in this book.

Where No-limit Texas Hold’em differs from many other poker books is the clear and easy-to-comprehend manner in which it is written it is written, a style that makes it the ideal primer for the novice poker schoool player. World Championship both, Brad Daugherty And Tom McEvoy are two of the only guys I know of who really are able to put their money where their mouths are. And they do it here like the pros they are. Read the book. You’ll be glad you did. I was.
