Default Re: Ankeny: Poker Strategy: Win with Game Theory

The book, which I have, covers the play of 5 card draw from a game theory standpoint as to develop optimal lines with various holdings. Since 5cd only has 2 streets of betting though, it provides an easier analysis than holdem and stud with more streets and thus more decision points. It is very good reading for applying game theory to poker, but you can probably find similar information elsewhere on the net these days, whereas at the time it was probably the only very good treatment of that. Also, I quickly found a used copy available for $29 on amazon so check there if you really want it.
