Re: The Mathematics of Poker
[ QUOTE ]
Was there anything from book, especially regarding analysis of other people's play, which provided any useful insight?

The meat of the book regards playing 'optimally' in poker-like toy games, rendering your opponent's play ev-neutral (ie his actions all have the same ev) so not a huge amount. The chapters on exploitative play vs hands and especially ranges are short but I found them helpful.
The book's not for everyone but it does what it says on the tin. I'm still rereading and absorbing it so insights may have to wait but it feels worthwhile.
I prefer thinking about poker to playing it so I'm biased [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
