Good book for learning the basic of poker mathematics, with emphasis on basic. It is explained very easy but there is some repetition in the book, it probably could have been half the size with all the white pages etc. If you want an intro into this topic and don't want to search the internet for individual resources than this book is a good starter.

A great introduction to fundamental concepts and basic things you need to be tracking while playing. However, it does not focus much on ranges, which is a concept you need to understand to succeed in poker. Despite that, my understanding of the game has definitely improved a lot because of this book and I would highly recommend it as an introductory read about poker.

In terms of poker books I would say this one is pretty fundamental for any beginning poker player and even offers tremendous value to more experienced players as well. The calculations of the cuckookilations that lie within are necessary in order to make excellent decisions at the poker table. I was already familiar with many of the concepts within, but this book will help me combine them in a way that I wasn't utilizing previously and which I think should help improve my own game. This is probably a must read for any aspiring poker player.

A great introduction to basic poker strategies. The book introduces terms like pot odds, equity. It also describes strategies for playing pre-flop (set-mining, steals, 3-bet bluffs) as well as post-flop (rule of 2 & 4, semi-bluffing, calculating EV, etc.).

The only disadvantage is that introduced math concepts are super basic, and descriptions may feel a bit wordy, especially if you have an engineering background (couple pages for explaining probabilities, odds, expected values).

Good take on Poker Mathmatics and probabilities. Some good insights and rules of thumb to asssetively decide while playing under pressure. Also a good bonus is the poker video course that is included with the book.

Just a warning thia book does not give much about playing strategy but more kn the analysis part which, of course is essential but clearly not enough to make a winning poker player💡💸

A completely new subject for me and the terminology is ridiculous. There's also a surprising amount of calculation to consider, but the author did a good job of introducing each subject. I read it to understand the decision making and for this purpose the book served me very well.

Just enough to get you started. Breadth wise, good enough.

This book covers a lot of breadth for ground work. Just enough to get you started for the next level of gameplay.
Practice hand discussions are realistic.
