Re: Killer Poker: By the Numbers?
In short, KPBTN is a worthwhile book.
Slightly longer story: I picked up the Killer Poker Online crushing the Internet game a year or two ago, and it was godawful. Since then, I had leafed through other Killer Poker books and found them equally atrocious.
A couple weeks ago I glanced at KPBTN but didn't give it much of my time because of prior experience with the Killer Poker line. But it did seem to have some actual content instead of the usual fluff and stuff.
Then I saw a post somewhere on here where the OP seemed to praise the book. So I decided to give it a chance. I'm glad I did. It's not as dry as you think. Sure there's math, but there is also a good bit of practical advice that is derived from the math. He has a good writing style. Make sure to read from the beginning because he explains how he goes about calculating the probabilities and odds for the rest of the book.
I'm not a "math" guy, in that I usually suck at math. But his explanations made it very easy to grasp.
