From the publisher

Texas Hold 'Em tournaments can be challenging, but TOURNAMENT POKER FOR RECREATIONAL PLAYERS (REVISED EDITION) proves you don't need to be Rain Man to make it rain. The complicated, math-based style of play (pot odds, fold equity, implied odds, etc.) is all the rage among professionals but only serves to make the game more difficult.

TOURNAMENT POKER FOR RECREATIONAL PLAYERS keeps it simple and outlines easy-to-understand strategies to provide you the tools needed to compete against even the most seasoned pros-without an advanced degree in mathematics.

If you are an online poker player struggling to succeed in multi-table tournaments, TOURNAMENT POKER FOR RECREATIONAL PLAYERS outlines a series of techniques designed to improve your win rates. The game-plan needed to enjoy success in tournaments changes as levels increase and the field dwindles. Players must adapt to their fluctuating fortunes or be sent to the rail.

Tactics used early - chasing draws and limping into hands - become liabilities in later rounds. Which adjustments do you make as the bubble approaches? What is the best short-stack strategy?

Too many inexperienced players are unaware they need to adapt their style of play and wind up busting before reaching the money.

Written by a recreational player for new and experienced casual players, TOURNAMENT POKER FOR RECREATIONAL PLAYERS keeps it simple and provides easily digestible advice on a variety of topics:
Building a bankroll from scratch
Managing your bankroll
The importance of position
Succeeding in Sit-n-Goes
Selecting the right tournament
Using free online resources to improve your game
Choosing an online site
Opening vs. calling
Bluffing and double-barreling
Playing with a small stack
The differences between live and online
The growing Pub Poker community
Gleaning intelligence from your tablemates
Handling your emotions
The importance of luck vs. skill.

The REVISED EDITION includes new chapters on playing Pocket Pairs and a review of Subscription-based poker sites.
