Book Description

They usually blame bad luck for their failures whereas in reality, they are simply not skilled enough at poker. The secret to mastering poker is not in memorizing hand ranking charts or following a predetermined system. You must learn to think for yourself while at the table in order to adjust your strategy based on your specific opponents. Strategies for Beating Small Stakes Poker Tournaments will explain how. In this guide, two-time World Poker Tour champion Jonathan Little explains numerous strategies he uses that will allow you to crush your opponents, giving you the opportunity to progress to the middle and high stakes.

And start putting a bigger gap between your winrate and the regs in your game.

Complete just a few pages per day, and you'll see serious improvement in the next month. And the best news is that these concepts come into play in every single session, at every single level, and wherever you happen to play poker.

This key also includes all of the range strands, making it easy to copy ranges from the workbook and paste them directly into your poker software. Is This Workbook For You? We all have to start somewhere, and no one is born with technical poker knowledge imprinted in their brain. So truthfully answer each of these: Can you look at a range and correctly estimate its %-form and number of combos? If not, then this book is for you. Do you know how often a player would fold if you 3bet or squeezed them? If not, this book is for you. Do you know how many combos of AQ a player can have on AQ4 when you hold AKs? If not, this book is for you. Do you know how much extra money you need to make when you have 15% equity and are getting 3:1 on a turn call? If not, then this book is for you. Do you know how often you can expect both the blinds to fold when you raise from the button? If not, this book is for you. Do you know how much equity AKs has against a range of QQ+/AK? If not, this book is for you. Are you 100% confident in your poker math skills yet? If not, then this book is for you. No more excuses. No more confusion when it comes to the core poker math. And no more reasons for skipping another study session. Pick up the Preflop & Math Poker Workbook and start seeing your strategy the right way. Good luck!

The most common way of doing this is through deposit bonuses, where the player is given a bonus code to enter when placing money into an account. One common feature of the online poker sites is to offer tournaments called satellites by which the winners gain entry to real-life poker tournaments. Online poker rooms reward customers through deposit bonuses, where the player is given a bonus code to enter when placing money into an account.
